Floral Flow | Course Description

Dear creative soul, 

I want to invite you to experience the delight of creative flow and intuitive painting. This may sound abstract, but what I mean is simply this: growing our capacity to be immersed in the process of creating. This is the beautiful space where we get lost in the present moment and our inner critic is not so loud. A growing path to experience delight in making.   

 Whether you have tasted this creative freedom or have a desire to experience more, I want to invite you to Floral Flow, a course all about growing this muscle of following our intuition. I have found this journey is certainly not linear, but full of opportunity to expand our enjoyment of the process and let our fears rest.

 In our time together we will explore the beauty of florals and high flow acrylics to create movement and expression.  Lessons will lead you to explore connections between feeling, color, movement, imagination. We will let the mediums move freely and then learn to respond. Using high flow mediums will give us a pathway to let go of control. We will give ourselves space to explore. I will share with you approaches that will help you to step into your own intuition and to create art from within. 

 I hope this course brings you excitement for play and process through florals. 

Lets Get creating!

Melissa Fink

Welcome creative soul! I am so glad you are here! Thank you for joining me in this course. I am Melissa Fink, a painter living in Western New York, creating in my home studio in our old 1870s farmhouse. Most days you can find me doing life with my husband Jesse and with our four young children. I believe beauty has great power to kindle hope. I am deeply inspired by nature and am often reminded that in spite of all that can go wrong in the world, some things can go so right. Nature is evidence of this reality – that beauty can emerge from barren places and broken things can be made new. This is why I paint and why nature deeply inspires me. My work is an invitation to see beauty in the unfolding moments of life, to offer a glimpse of hope and joy.
