Expressive Art

Whether you're a seasoned artist or just starting your creative journey, this Intuitive Painting class is designed to be a joyful exploration of how music can influence your art-making process. Join us for a dynamic, hands-on experience where you’ll create art that reflects your responses to various musical pieces. We’ll begin with a discussion on the connection between music and art, followed by guided activities that encourage you to let the music guide your brushstrokes, colors, and overall artistic expression.

This is not just a class—it’s a paint party! We encourage dancing, socializing, and fully immersing yourself in the group's creative energy. Beverages and snacks will be provided to keep the vibe fun and relaxed. By the end of the session, you’ll have artwork that represents your unique connection between sound and vision and a newfound appreciation for how music can shape your creative process. Come ready to experiment, have fun, and let your intuition lead the way!
