Retreat Season Fall 2018- Winter 2019 Posted on 14 Nov 13:31

Last week was our first retreat of the season, and it was AMAZING! We met so many wonderful ladies (1 even came from Australia and 1 from England). There is nothing, nothing in this world quite like creating art together at the Disney parks. Many of us talked about how healing it is, you feel like a little girl again, giddy in a world where anything is possible. A place where there is magic if you know where to look. We'd love to have you join us for the adventure! Each of the remaining retreats has about 2 spots left! Won't you join us? We want to experience the magic with YOU! 

Art Journal LIVE at Disney World in January 2018 with us! Posted on 14 Nov 11:44

We are deep in the planning stages of our next LIVE retreat and we'd love for YOU to be there in January 2018. Each and every time we announce one of these I get more excited than the last one, they just keep getting better and better and each one is unique. One of things I'm most excited about is that this time we'll be attending the "Disney After Hours" party! If you are even thinking about coming we recommend getting your "After Hours" party ticket right away and then shoot us an email and let us know you are trying to come, as the workshop is about 50% sold out already!

Two Brand NEW Online Sketchbook Classes! Posted on 1 Aug 18:10

I feel like Rapunzel today, I want to shout "BEST DAY EVER!". I'm so giddy to announce that we have TWO brand new online classes!

[Memory Lane, Attractions of the Past] Sketchbook Class

If you loved the original "A Walk in the Park Online Sketchbook Adventure & Tour" you don't want to miss this spectacular add-on class! We will take a trip down "Memory Lane" to beloved Disneyland attractions long gone, learning the history of vintage rides while using NEW techniques not covered in other classes. 

For a limited time, if you purchase "Memory Lane" you will also get our new kids class FREE! 

[Just for Kids Art Journaling & Autograph Books] Sketchbook Class

Kids LOVE to do art! What better way to feed their love of Disney and being creative? They'll also learn how to turn their journals into custom made autograph books. This super kidtastic class is all inclusive and perfect for kids 03-103; it includes VERY BASIC watercolor instruction suitable for little hands. Advanced students will love it too, as an add-on to the original "A Walk in the Park Online Sketchbook Adventure & Tour".

Register by August 3rd, 2016 for this amazing 2-for-1 deal! These classes start on August 15th, but like all of our online classes, you can begin at any time after that date and work at your own pace. You automatically get lifetime access so you can revisit any lesson, any time!

Happy Birthday Alice Posted on 28 Jul 18:38

The original Disney "Alice in Wonderland" movie was released on July 28, 1951, according to Disney, but there is also a release date of July 26.  So in honor of Alice's birthday, which ever date it is - I thought I would share some student sketches of Alice from the Walk in the Park online class.

Announcement about our Live Retreats... Posted on 19 Aug 17:51

Hello Magicteers! We've got some huge news about our LIVE retreats!

Have you been *thinking* about joining us in November? It might be the very best time to go (see announcement below). We'd love for you to come share in the magic with us at our "very merry celebration", work with other artists and meet brand new friends. There is still time to register and plenty of time to make your travel arrangements. Here's why you might want to jump in with both feet right now...

After much consideration, we have decided that we are taking a little hiatus from retreat planning. We will not be hosting a live retreat in the Spring of 2016 (and possibly not in the fall of 2016 either). It could be a year or more before we are on location again, we aren't sure when the next one will be. Next year is a very busy year for us as a family, lots of milestones coming up. We're excited to commit to spend more time together before our daughter leaves for college & volunteers for a church mission!

So don't delay... there has never been a better time to join us live!


The Enchanted Tiki Room Posted on 23 Jun 20:52

The Enchanted Tiki Room attraction at Disneyland opened on June 23, 1963. Happy 52nd Birthday to our favorite birds, José, Michael, Pierre and Fritz! Their witty banter and the catchy melodies they sing, with the help of history making audio-animatronics, have made this a favorite Disney experience since childhood. Plus, who doesn't love a refreshing Dole Whip?!

Here's a look at some artwork from our Enchanted Tiki Room lesson in
