AND BRING YOUR FAVORITE MUG
Join watercolor fine artist, Katie White, and, photographer and Art of Life Creativity Retreats founder, Lizzie Larock for a cozy hour on Zoom.
Katie will paint live and walk you through her meditative watercolor process, the same gentle, pressure-free approach she'll be teaching in Le Marche, Italy and Croatia in 2027.
Lizzie will share some smart phone travel photo inspiration to help you notice the small, extraordinary details most people miss.
We'll tell you all about our 2027 retreats and be there live as we're giving away some beautiful Katie White prints and gifts from Katie and Lizzie's studios to a few lucky winners. We'll also answer every retreat question you can throw at us and share a special thank-you for everyone who registers for the Zoom. Yes! It'll be recorded, too, so register even if you can't be there live.
No brushes required (though paint along if you feel like it). Slippers encouraged.

KATIE WHITE PRINTS & GIFTS
Katie's watercolors are carried by Pottery Barn, Serena & Lily and Ballard Designs, and they have a habit of making people exhale. A few lucky people on our live call will take a little Katie White gift home!
"Thank you for one of the most magical weeks of my LIFE! Truly. I have had more inspiration and moments of joy than I have had in as long as I can remember. This is what my soul was screaming for. Here is to the next chapter of Art of Life retreats. I will be there." - Hadley
