We’ll gather and stay at a the LAND, a beautiful, private creative compound nestled in the high desert to explore the intersection of nature, color, and personal expression. This retreat is an invitation to slow down and let the landscape move you. Through guided exercises, quiet studio time, and open-ended creative play, you’ll have the space to reconnect with your artistic voice, whether you’re a seasoned painter or just beginning. We’ll wander the land for inspiration, share meals at sunset under wide skies, and enjoy optional experiences such as a visit to Georgia O’Keeffe’s home and studio - a rare glimpse into the world of one of the most iconic American artists who drew inspiration from this very terrain. All levels are welcome. All mediums are encouraged. Come with curiosity and a sketchbook - leave with a renewed connection to the land and your creative self.
