Art Heart & Healing Self Portrait


It's a real joy to join this online art workshop entitled Art, Heart and Healing. Artist Tamara Laporte teaches different methods she uses to create such beautiful pieces. Everyone there is just awesome! Participants work is fresh and fun and unrestrained expression. Support and admiration abounds.

If you'd like to join the workshop it's not too late *ever* as Tam has posted the videos indefinitely. Click here to learn, get inspired and even heal! :)
