How to Paint Botanicals: Shape, Rhythm & Form Date/Time: 9:30 AM – 1:00 PM Duration: 3.5 hours Celebrate spring with a focused, skill-building botanical painting workshop designed for all levels. This class begins with a 45-minute to 1-hour live demonstration by Artist-in-Residence Sari Shryack, who will walk through her process for building a botanical painting—from establishing large shapes to developing form, rhythm, and detail. Students will then apply these techniques to create their own botanical painting, working from fresh floral or succulent references. Emphasis will be placed on: - Seeing and simplifying organic shapes - Building form from general to specific - Understanding rhythm and flow within natural structures - Developing confidence with color and brushwork Whether you’re new to painting or looking to refine your approach, this workshop is designed to give you practical tools you can continue using beyond the class. You’ll leave with both a finished botanical painting and a clearer understanding of how to approach painting from life. Just in time for Mother’s Day—create something meaningful as a gift, or spend the morning painting something for yourself.

Visit our FAQsMy earliest memory is doing macaroni art, and I have kept a sketchbook for years. I began my official art career as a printmaker in college. I love the process, but after time I became sensitive to the chemicals and pivoted to digital design and video. When I got out of school I became a graphic designer and eventually, after many, many years I started sharing the artwork I had been doing all along in sketchbooks. I started taking the odd art commission here and there, while low-key selling on Etsy in 2021. Health issues prompted me to rethink a fast-paced marketing career in 2024, and now I am focused on art-making, murals, commissions, and design.

Permanent decisions, properly stabbed. Tattoos guaranteed to disappoint your family.
As a kid, I was always fascinated with "all things cameras". Throughout the years I have explored the world of photography that sparked a "flash" that eventually couldn't be contained as a hobby. That passion for capturing precious moments led me to pursue a life long journey behind the viewfinder. My biggest challenge during this journey has been medical issues with my eyes that resulted in many sight saving eye surgeries. I became interested in the anatomy of the human and fused my passion with photography which resulted in UrbanEye iris photography.

My love for dogs is where it all began. As a devoted dog owner, I wanted only the safest, most natural products for my own pups—and that passion quickly turned into something more. I began creating handmade puppy products using carefully selected essential oils, focusing on gentle, effective solutions that support both wellness and comfort. Every item is crafted with intention, quality, and a deep respect for the dogs who bring so much joy into our lives.
