A Peek Inside Essence and A Give-Away (giveaway now closed)

Essence opens Feb 29, a mixed-media self-paced class with ongoing access. We will be practicing portraiture and reflecting on self-knowing through relationship and awareness. from Hali Karla Arts

My newest online class, Essence, starts next Monday, February 29 - and I am having so much fun putting this exploration of mixed-media portrait practice and self-awareness together!

Below, I'm sharing a tiny peek at some of the in-process shots from making the first week's content, AND giving away 3 free spots to join us. Scroll down to enter.

In Essence, we will be working with portraiture through both intentional studies and skill-building, as well as with our intuitive & expressive flairs. The art-making will be side-by-side with some heart-healing, soul-working reflections about where we stop, start, end and blend with our notions of identity and in our relationships.

If you join this class, which has ongoing access, you will be playing with how you see and make marks, as well as calling forth your own essence to bring feeling into how you create portraits - no matter what level of art-making experience you have.

Essence is also the very first of three brand new 5-week class sessions I am putting together this year to develop, deepen and infuse your creative practice with meaning and joy. The whole package is called Making Art Medicine - and you can take each session individually, or sign up for all three at once.
