“I couldn’t recommend working with Desiree enough! Her method of teaching is so approachable and intuitive and appropriate for all skill levels or no experience at all! She is a kind hearted teacher who truly guides those participating into an experience in the present moment. What I loved about her workshop was that I felt so full, grounded, loved, and hopeful upon completion. Take her workshops if you have the opportunity!”

“Desiree is the Real Deal. Intuitive, kind, patient, and encouraging. Her workshops are a blissful ocean of support, insight and practical art skills, filled with waves of grace and joy. I proudly display my paintings and feel so much happiness each time I see them. I was scared to death of "art" and thought I was unable to do it, but Des lovingly guided and walked with me through my fears and I am forever grateful for her workshops and for her presence in my life.”
