Your Inspiration:  After traveling extensively through the United States, I was searching for my next adventure. I used to paint and draw as a teenager. After years of working long hours, felt compelled to get back in touch with my artistic side. I googled what I wanted and stumbled across Artista. After reading about the art safari, I was hooked. I had to wait two months for an available spot. Those were two very long months.

Who did you travel with? I drove from Oregon to Carmel on my own.

Journey Highlights: There were so many, but without a doubt, finding my creative expression with acrylic paints – it was liberating and delightful. I astounded myself!

Would you recommend this journey to others? Definitely – it was a safe, comfortable, and fun environment to explore, make mistakes, and try again. The Artista crew made the whole experience. They were relaxed, easy to be with, drama-free, and always put us guests first.

Where do you want to go for your next journey?
I’d love to go back to Carmel for a top-up course, especially with Lauryn!
