WORK WITH ME
Intuitive Art Workshops
During these workshops we explore techniques in drawing, painting, collage, printmaking.
We will create a space of non-judgement to support a deepening into intuition, observation and awareness. Our work is inspired by nature, which has been studied by neuroaesthetic researchers to enliven all of the senses. It brings a sense of calm and connection.
Workshop participants can expect a grounding, creative experience through a method of drawing and painting that is intuitive, making it ideal for those with a limited (or no) artistic background. We start with a few moments of centering, followed by instruction and demonstration. Materials are provided. Participants will leave the workshop with finished art pieces, along with a relaxed and recharged feeling.

Creativity / Intuitive Art Workshops
“This was my first time ever to participate in any kind of art class. Since that first one, I felt such encouragement and enthusiasm to paint. Marieke, just being her own generous self, brought out the side of me that I had forgotten about since my childhood. I wish there would be more people like her in our world. Since that first class, I’ve been painting consistently. “

“Before taking Marieke’s art class I had never experienced the deeply mediative act of drawing. I have studied art at a college level and have a career as a profession actor, writer, director. I’m also certified in various healing arts which is only to say that I am no stranger to the creative process and the many ways art heals. Marieke’s simple guidance and faith in the beauty that will inevitably come through to make itself known was a true revelation for me. Her work will bring you gently into connection with untapped aspects of your capacity to experience the natural creative flow that runs through us all, but perhaps especially, through women.”

"The first time I joined Marieke‘s art class, I was blown away by how relaxed of an environment it was. It really generated a feeling of letting go of any kind of expectations or judgments, and allowing myself to experience what it was to be creative. This was my first time ever to participate in any kind of art class. Since that first one, I felt such encouragement and enthusiasm to paint. Marieke, just being her own generous self, brought out the side of me that I had forgotten about since my childhood. I wish there would be more people like her in our world. Since that first class, I’ve been painting consistently. Thank you!"

"I loved the workshop today! What you are creating is so deep and meaningful. I left feeling so grounded, connected and open. Your art projects are so meditative and beautiful. I love how natural the conversations were and how much we all clearly desire to connect and share our experiences and be heard.”
