Guided Art Meditation

Paint & Ponder began in 2021 when the director of Jacoby Arts Center (Rachel) offered me the time and supplies to create a program. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to offer, but her guidance was to follow my heart. I knew I wanted to make a space for all levels of creation and all walks of life to enjoy!

In 2020 I took time to be alone and truly learn things about myself. I watched my patterns and processes. In that time I learned the power of sitting with yourself and allowing your body to know you’re there for it.


Today I guide large scale meditation events focused on active meditation. Giving participants a space to create and feel supported on their personal journey.
