This art class will focus on playful and easy experiment with a mix of art supplies – stencils, watercolors, markers. We will create an accordion-fold booklet layered with abstract florals and embedded meaningful words and symbols. We will discuss the process of releasing and transforming thoughts and emotions as part of the art making process to be used as a tool for relaxation and wellness. Come and explore the connection between health, wellbeing, and creative expression.

Debbie Levine, originally from NY, is an Austin based lawyer-turned-artist who has been teaching art process at Lake Austin Spa for over a decade. She was drawn to the creative process intuitively, as a means of relieving stress while studying for the NYS Bar exam. She is a playful thinker and a self-taught artist; she continues to study art technique along with the relationship between wellness, intuitive collage and mark making and the creative process. Her diverse experience, enthusiasm for what she does, ability to connect and bring out each participants’ natural abilities make her classes both informative and enjoyable.
