Full Bio & Programs

For everyone; no prior painting or yoga experience required.
Do you have an artist living inside you, yearning to express? This workshop offers you the chance to let go and paint. Come explore your creative side in a supportive, non-competitive environment where you can experiment with watercolors, pastels, and collage.
This program includes
- Gentle stretching, yogic breathing, and other activities to help relax the mind and body

- Daily painting demonstrations by Linda Novick
- Lots of individual attention to guide you along your way.
