About Artful Escapes™
Artful Escapes™ was founded to bring elevated, thoughtfully curated art experiences to private events, clubs, and social gatherings. Each workshop is designed with intention — combining high‑quality materials, refined instruction, and a strong visual aesthetic to create experiences that feel polished, seamless, and beautifully executed from start to finish.
At the heart of Artful Escapes™ is a genuine love for art, travel, and the joy of bringing people together. I’ve always believed that creativity becomes more meaningful when it’s shared — when a group slows down, gathers around a table, and creates something with their hands. These Escapes are inspired by the places that have shaped me, the colors and textures that move me, and the simple pleasure of making art in good company.
Every workshop is crafted as a moment of beauty: a chance to explore, unwind, and connect. Blending fine‑art sensibility with warm, welcoming instruction, Artful Escapes™ invites guests into experiences that feel inspiring, expressive, and deeply human — where creativity becomes not just an activity, but a lasting memory.
I look forward to creating something beautiful with you.!
