I’m thrilled to share some exciting news for this spring and summer  I’ll be teaching on the move at Stone Manor Studios!
This beautiful creative venue is nestled in the historic Newboro Manor carriage house in the village of Newboro, Ontario, set on 2.5 acres of inspiring grounds with natural light, inviting studio space, and a truly unique atmosphere for making art and connecting with others.
At Stone Manor Studios, creativity blooms in every season. Their workshops are more than classes, they are experiences that invite artists to slow down, deepen their practice, and enjoy the process in a peaceful, beautiful setting in the heart of Rideau Lakes.
I’m so excited to be part of this creative community and to be offering four upcoming workshops there this season! These classes are thoughtfully designed to help you grow your skills, find confidence in your creative voice, and enjoy the joy of making art in a supportive, inspiring environment.

Stone Manor Studios is such a magical place, created to inspire connection, skill‑building, and creative exploration, and I’m honoured to be part of their workshop lineup this year! 

Why This Studio is Different

With years of teaching experience, I focus on progress over perfection. Each class balances technique with creative freedom, helping you grow your skills while celebrating your individuality. Working in watercolour, gouache, acrylics, and more, my workshops are approachable, supportive, and designed to help you grow at your own pace, and have fun along the way.
