Inspired Creations
At Inspired Creations, our goal is to unleash the creative artist already living inside you, to inspire confidence, and set you on the path to your own original creations.

Whether your *art medium* is paint, words or digital, we have a program to inspire your creativity to jump to the next level!
Painting with Confidence
Group Lessons
Private Painting Parties*
At Inspired Creations you’re encouraged to color outside the lines instead of following along, painting the same painting as the rest of your friends.
Our parties are about connecting with your inner artist within and letting your unique artistic style shine through! Paint without fear of failure, because there is no failure when you paint from your heart!
Each guest creates their own extraordinary work of art they can be proud of.
*In the privacy of your own home, or location of your choice.

Never fear, you were born an artist, and I will be there every step of the way, helping you coax that inner artist out again.
