Class Schedules

I teach various 6-week classes in Santa Cruz County—all of them about learning watercolor, mandala-making and painting from the heart. Some of the classes include Nature Mandalas, Flower Mandalas, Gifts from The Heart, Capturing The Light in Mandalas, Gratitude or Kindness Mandalas. I also teach 1 or 2-day workshops in various locations. Watch the schedule for the latest classes and workshops. I would be happy to discuss the possibility of my teaching a workshop in your area.

Flower of Life in the Cosmos

Course Description

Let’s keep creating good energy for ourselves and the world with mandalas! They ARE magical, fun, healing and come from the heart. This will be a free time to create your own personal mandalas, and/or mandalas to bring light and harmony to others. Step into a circle of creativity and join other supportive and like-minded souls who create from their hearts. There will be no formal instruction but in each class a fellow mandala maker can if they wish, share a poem, meditation or mandala for inspiration. Let’s share and try new and different techniques! Michele will be available for questions and demos.

Bring materials you would like to work with.

Your mandala classes have supported through a grueling time. Thank you for being such a knowledgeable and inspiring teacher. It was your own mandala art that drew me initially to your classes. Your work is exquisitely fine, it is healing and supportive and it is sacred.
