My Mission
My mission as an art teacher is to inspire creativity, nurture self-expression, and share the healing power of art with the world. I strive to create a space where everyone can explore, discover their own style, and heal! 

What types of workshops do I teach? 

Paint and Sips!
This laid back option gives people of all ages and backgrounds the opportunity to express themselves. These classes offer adults the space to express themselves and paint freely over a glass of wine. 

If you are interested in having a paint and sip in your space, please reach out via email at kirstie.connon.art@gmail to discuss details! I do private parties also!

Art Meditations
What are art meditations?

With a background in art therapy, I love to give people the opportunity to practice mindfulness in painting. I believe that art has the power to strengthen our intution, calm the mind, and reconnect us with our emotions. 

What are students saying?

"Kirstie is an incredible teacher and has helped me gain the confidence to start painting again more regularly. Her lessons are easy to follow and relaxed and I always feel excited to practice what I've learned after our sessions. She breaks things down in a way that makes them less intimidating and more approachable"
