Rikki is a professional painter and therapeutic art coach.
This week’s classes are full of golden sunsets, curious creatures, and delightful critters—each one capturing the magic of late summer. As we explore nature through art and play, we’re also beginning to feel the gentle shift in the seasons.
By the end of the week, we’ll be sliding straight into sunflower season, with bright blooms inspiring our paintings. If you’re someone who loves wandering through a sunflower field, capturing golden hour photos, or just soaking in the joy of these towering beauties, you’ll feel right at home with what we have planned.
And for our pumpkin patch lovers—get ready! The very first pumpkins of the season are making their way onto our class calendar. Whether you’re dreaming of cozy fall crafts, planning your annual visit to the local pumpkin farm, or simply craving that nostalgic autumn feeling, we’ve got you covered.
🌻🎃 Back-to-School Fun for Kids & Families 🎃🌻
We know the first week back to school can be a whirlwind—full of early mornings, new routines, and big emotions. That’s why our kids and family art classes this week are designed to be a joyful reset button. Whether you’re celebrating a smooth transition or just need to take the pressure off, a creative session is the perfect way to unwind, connect, and reward your little ones for their hard work and bravery.
Featuring FUN critters, these classes give kids space to relax and express themselves—and give parents a chance to breathe, too. Think of it as a little post-school magic to wrap up a big week.
