About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Every time you pick up a brush, you're creating in your own unique way.

There’s no right or wrong—just you, expressing yourself in the moment. When people say they love painting but don’t know how, I always tell them—there is no how, just start. However it flows is exactly how it’s meant to be. And just like you, it will grow, change, and unfold beautifully over time

This retreat isn’t just about making fabulous art—it’s about experiencing creativity, letting go, and discovering the joy of the process. Its fun!

Create Your Own Way – There’s no how—just the way you create in each moment. Explore painting, sculpting, and art meditation with complete freedom.

For Togetherness or Self-Discovery – Come with your mother, daughter, sister, friend or embrace your own solo creative journey.

Deep Connection – Strengthen bonds with loved ones or reconnect with yourself through art, nature, and mindful creativity.

Freedom to Explore – No pressure, no expectations—just a supportive space to express, play, and create in ways that feel right for you.

Every activity—from art meditations with clay and painting to sculpting, drawing, and mindful movement—is designed to be healing, fostering deep connection with yourself, each other, nature, and your heart.

Rest & Recharge – Hawaiian massages, yoga, and peaceful surroundings help you unwind, restore, and find balance.

A Transformative Experience – Leave with renewed creativity, deeper connections, and beautiful keepsakes—both in art and in memory.

Treat yourselves and make more moments matter in your life!

"I went back to New York a much calmer, level headed, creative and empowered female.I feel like Catarina (my daughter)and I grew together in this retreat, so mission accomplished. That was my personal experience, now go make yours and book that retreat." Jessica
