Creativity isn’t just art. It’s medicine. It reduces stress (cortisol), increases dopamine and serotonin and makes you feel so friggen good!Creativity isn’t about perfection it’s about presence. And playing like a kid again is one of the highest states of being.Come join me in my creative sanctuary, where I give you the permission to play.“I love the safe and playful environment. Tandi guides you with really great instructions that are not difficult to follow at all. I’m excited to come to more workshops.”
“Every adult needs PLAYNTING in their life! Tandi is a confident guide who put me at ease while opening myself up to a new style of art making. She helped me get out of my head, quiet my inner critic, and create without fear. I was delighted to make my first hand-painted booklet, which I filled with poems, as a raw expression of my heart. As a longtime painter, it was a wonderful relief to be led through a new exercise that got me out of the default mode and expanded my creative range. I was completely lost in the creative process, playing, experimenting, having fun, and finding delight in the beautiful artifact I took home. It came at the perfect time as I was processing some deep emotions; taking time to make something with my hands was cathartic and therapeutic. Tandi has a true gift for unleashing the inner child within every artist.”
“It’s about the experience of creating, tapping into parts of your brain and imagination that rarely get used, and allowing yourself the freedom to simply express.”
“I had so much energy! I found myself being very present in what we were doing and it truly did feel like play.
I felt so free to creatively express myself in a non judgmental environment and that let me access parts of myself that I don’t always feel I can access.
It’s perfect for people who are beginners as much as it is for someone more seasoned.
I absolutely loved the experience you provided Tandi, the way the studio was set up, having everything out on the table was so visually appealing. I’m so thrilled you designed something like this!”
