Do you consider the time to make art a luxury you can't afford in your busy life? Do you wish you could create on a regular basis, build your portfolio and perhaps turn your art into a career one day but you are overwhelmed by daily obligations and lack of inspiration? Do you simply have no energy to even think about adding another thing to your plate? 

Jumpstart your artistic journey with "pocket-sized creativity", a fun process I developed back in 2015 when I was trying to get back on track after years of barely touching the brush.

"Pocket-sized creativity" method will allow you to introduce art into your life in a stress-free and nondemanding way, whether you're an overworked professional or a busy stay-at-home mum.

 I'll help you to identify and remove the biggest roadblocks that prevent you from building a creative practice into your daily routine. You'll learn how to actually make time for doing what you love and I'll show you how to shift your mindset around creating your art.

 You'll discover how to maximize small pockets of time during your day and make more time for creativity, even if you think you don't have it!

  I’ll guide you through every step of the process and show you how to create pocket-sized masterpieces that will become building blocks of your entire creative career. 

 By the end of this class, you’ll have all the tools you need to start honing your skills, finding your style and putting together your portfolio - slowly and without pressure!
