Workshop Fee: $45.00 USD
Intuitive Intention Setting + Watercolors
Mindfulness isn’t something that only happens silently on a cushion.
Your self-expression. Your spirit. It’s part of how you connect to your deepest truths.
The ones that can ONLY come from you. You do not need me for that--- but what I can do is help you create a container of expression to set intentions within.
This time of year you will find hundreds of workshops on how to set your intention and hold a plan for the year. But how will you keep that fire lit?
This is what I can offer.
A reminder that you can do things you never thought you would… in a new way.
Your very own deck will allow you a brand new perspective on what you already know you want. It will give you dedicated time to reflect not only on your intention but also what parts make up your intuition and which perspectives you will need to remember as the year goes on.
Sail through the oceans of the unknown into 2022 with a gift from your intuition that you can hold in your hands.
Where we meet
We'll meet virtually over Zoom for each of the two workshops. Zoom You can join from your desktop or mobile device.
What you'll need
You really only need paper and a simple watercolor palette for this workshop. Specialty kits are available to order before specific dates.
TESTIMONIALS
"I learned so much from the process Luz guided us through in her workshop of creating my own intention deck. This workshop stimulated my creativity while also giving me a treasured deck that guided me through my year. I had no previous experience with watercolors and felt confident and supported through the entire experience." - Meg Collier
“Luz’s class helped me get out of my head and into the process of pure creation- something I struggle to do on my own. She provided space for processing 2020, invited us to make meaning, and gave thoughtful prompts to guide the creative expression of what we learned in 2020. As an instructor, Luz was clear, kind, attentive, and heartfelt. I’m grateful to have taken the class! And I’m looking forward to practicing this process more regularly moving forward.” - Melissa
MEET YOUR GUIDE:
Luz
I’m a self-taught abstract watercolor artist living in Santa Cruz, California. I was born in San Jose, Costa Rica, and started painting at an early age. I’ve been self-employed most of my adult life, always balancing between my career as a self-taught marketing consultant and as a painter. I am interested in the study of digital connection and consciousness. This informs an approach in my work that seeks to connect the space between my autobiographical perspective and a collective experience.Workshop Outcomes:

Optional Materials Kit Information
Bring your own materials:
I carefully curated materials boxes based on what I’ve found easy and fun to use but they are “mystery boxes” because it is important for me to communicate to you that what makes your art special and wonderful is NOT what you use but how to approach it. Of course, with watercolor, there are some considerations that I will address below.
Acrylics can work but the reason I recommend water-soluble media is that we’ll be working in layers for several hours.
You’re welcome to use any of the following materials:
-watercolor of any kind
-water-soluble crayons
-tape
-masking fluid
-markers
-acrylic paint
-acrylic markers
-color pencil
When purchasing paper consider how you’ll want to use your cards. Your paper should also be able to hold lots of paint and dry somewhat quickly. If you want to use your cards as a deck you shuffle consider laminating them and/or using 300 gsm watercolor paper. You’ll make to make sure you use watercolor or mixed media paper cut into small pieces (4x5)
