Grow your skills, Bloom in confidence and Flourish creatively
Welcome to Creatively Misty’s In-Person Art Workshops
I'm Misty, mixed media artist and creative guide in the wilds of western Oregon. If you’re here, you’re likely feeling the tug. That whisper inside that says: “There’s something more. Something colorful. Something mine.” You’re not alone.
That's exactly why I'm here- to share my knowledge and process with you. I’m on a mission to ignite that creative spark and boost your confidence, so you can experience the everyday magic that living creatively can bring to your life.
I created these e-workshops for women like you — heart-centered, beautifully complex, and craving something just for you.
Maybe you’ve been the caretaker, the cheerleader, the one holding it all together. But somewhere along the way, your creative spark got buried under perfectionism, fear, or the constant demands of daily life.
These workshops are your invitation to come home to yourself.
To rediscover the joy of creating without rules, to play without judgment, and to finally claim space for your art — and yourself.
Through bold color, beautiful collage, and fearless mixed media exploration, I’ll guide you step-by-step in nurturing your inner artist — even if you’re just beginning or have been away for years. No “talent” required. Just curiosity, courage, and a willingness to show up.
I’m thrilled to share my creative process and my love of mixed media with you. Let’s share a little happiness and explore the world of color, collage and art together!
