About this event

Align with Nature’s Flow: Spring Renewal Art & Journaling Workshop


Join us for a rejuvenating experience as we tap into the energy of the season to inspire creativity and self-reflection. This workshop is designed to help you clear mental clutter, release what no longer serves you, and plant new seeds of intention.

If you’re feeling resistant, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next steps, this workshop offers a gentle, creative way to reconnect with your own rhythm.

Together, we’ll create personalized ‘Blooming Vision’ artworks — visual representations of your intentions for the season — while exploring how nature’s cycles can inspire more ease, balance, and flow in our own lives.

No artistic skills required, just an open heart and mind. Let's come together to celebrate the magic of spring!


What to Expect

  • Guided Journaling Reflection: Connect with your inner voice through thoughtful prompts designed to help you reflect, release, and refocus.
  • Mindfulness & Visualization: Engage in a grounding practice to connect with the wisdom of nature’s cycles.
  • Art-Making Practice: Create a symbolic ‘Blooming Vision’ artwork using drawing, painting, watercolor, or collage techniques.
  • Creative Community Sharing: Reflect on your insights and creative process in a safe and supportive group setting.


Materials

  • Sketchbook, journal, canvas or drawing papyer
  • Watercolors, colored pencils, or markers
  • Magazines or collage materials (optional for adding texture and meaning)
  • Scissors & glue stick
  • Any special symbols, images, or meaningful objects you'd like to incorporate

(Don’t worry if you don’t have everything — creativity thrives with what’s available.)


Why Attend?

This workshop is for you if:

  • You're feeling stuck or resistant to change
  • You’re seeking a meaningful way to set intentions for spring
  • You want to connect with your creativity in a mindful and inspiring way


About Me

My name is Ella Dufrene, and I’m a passionate expressive arts facilitator, art therapist, and retreat leader. With over 10 years of experience helping others discover their inner wisdom through creativity, I believe that art has the power to heal, inspire, and connect us more deeply to ourselves and the world around us.

In my work, I blend mindfulness, nature-inspired practices, and expressive arts to create experiences that help people feel more grounded, creative, and whole. Whether through retreats, workshops, or community gatherings, my goal is to guide others in exploring the beauty of their inner landscape.

I’d love to support you in creating space for your own renewal this season.

Organized by

I’m an intuitive painter and an art therapist, but above all, I am human, and my mission in life is to help other humans discover a deeper love and understanding of themselves through the healing powers of art making.

Together, we’ll paint, draw, sculpt, collage, and explore other forms of creativity, but I am not an art teacher, and when we work together, there is no right or wrong way to express yourself. I am here to guide you on a creative journey of self-exploration, personal growth, and connection to your intuitive self and the world around you.

I offer in-person creative arts retreats and virtual art therapy sessions. I use a holistic approach to wellness and a playful ‘person first’ approach to therapy.
