Art Resources to inspire and support your creativity during COVID-19 stay-at-home time — call it your Creative Retreat!

Many of us are now in lockdown, shelter-in-place mode, to protect ourselves, our loved ones, and everyone else in our community during the COVID-19 pandemic. As artists and creative people, we are lucky that we can continue to do our creative work at home, maybe on a smaller scale. Consider it the gift of time, and give yourself an at-home creative retreat, an art retreat stay-cation. 
And lucky us, that we have so many resources online that we can turn to during this time! Here's a list of resources you can check out (I will add to this as I find more). My thanks to all my students who shared resources they came across, to share them with you!

    I am a working artist in Napa and Sonoma Counties, in northern California. I paint colorist landscapes of rural California, teach art classes, workshops, and private lessons, live in Calistoga, and have my art studio in Santa Rosa, California.

    ​I also teach private, group, and corporate art workshops online and in Napa Valley, Sonoma County, and other parts of Northern California. You can find more information about my art workshops at www.NapaValleyArtWorkshops.com, or contact me to find out more!
