In our Art as Healing classes, we start out with a short meditation to get in a relaxed frame of mind. We will then move onto painting a set of abstract watercolor prints. While those are drying, you will get to choose how you want to cut up your papers to create a larger print that you can then frame. This unique process mimics how we go through many experiences in life and each piece sticks with us in a different way to create the beauty that is our life.

Supplies: All supplies are included.

About the instructor:

A southern girl with a creative heart, Katie Brobst is a Red Bank resident who loves to share her love of the arts with others. She is inspired by the nature and music of our region and is drawn to creating art sustainably. Specializing in acrylic painting, Katie brings to her classes not just the knowledge of how to paint, but also how to use art as a way of relaxing and therapy. Katie moved to Chattanooga 10 years ago on a whim and quickly found home in the Scenic City. Outside of painting, she also is a children’s book illustrator and graphic designer. When she is not creating art, she is often found somewhere outside kayaking, reading, or spending time with others. Please note: Katie is not a licensed or credentialed art therapist.
