I have something really exciting to share…I’m now teaching in Ireland with my daughter, Kenzie (Snippets of Whimsy)!
Next March, Kenzie and I will be leading an art retreat in Ireland, and we’d love for you to join us! As a mother-daughter duo, we’ve always found so much joy in creating and exploring together, so it only makes sense for the two of us to also lead art retreats together!
Come with us on a 6-day creative retreat across Ireland.
We’ll travel from Dublin to Killarney, and document our trip in our own personal travel journals. (And guess what…we’ll be there on St. Patrick’s Day!) Throughout the retreat, we’ll be sharing our favorite travel art journaling techniques to help you capture the magic of the moment, in your own unique way.
This isn’t about being “good at art.” It’s about slowing down, being present, and creating alongside kindred spirits. Whether you’re new to art journaling or have shelves full of sketchbooks, there’s space for you at our table.

Some trip highlights:
🇮🇪 A walking tour of Dublin
🍺 A Guinness Storehouse visit,
🏰 A visit to the Cashel Castle
🐑 A scenic tour of the Ring of Kerry on its winding path through the countryside
🥃 An Irish Whiskey and cheese tasting
🎨 Creative sketchbook sessions
When: March 16-21, 2026
Where: Dublin → Killarney
Who: You, me, and a small group of kindred spirits
Why: Because you deserve a little adventure

Space is limited! Snag one of the 3 remaining early bird spots before they run out! (A $100 savings)
Price: $2995 $3095 First 8 spots save $100! Selling fast, only 6 left!
Only 25% down is needed to claim your spot and payment plans are available. Just select ‘pay over time’ at booking and apply to finance your trip.
Let’s go explore Ireland!
