Express yourself freely as I guide you through a process of self healing and splattering paint! A Soul Splatter Experience is based on community that will provide an opportunity to build connections between attendees while experiencing individual healing and expression.

Society has conditioned us to hide the childlike parts of ourselves as we grow older and I believe that one way to step into our authentic selves, is to get in touch with our inner child and let them express themselves freely, without judgement.
