Please Note: As a prerequisite for this class, participants must have taken at least 1 Dream in Watercolor session with me in the past.
Dream deeper in this intimate small group setting. There are only 5 seats available per session and prerequisite of having participated in Dream in Watercolor previously. This session is held at a private residence in NE Portland. The address will be provided after registration and as the session date approaches.
Dream in Watercolor is a portal through which we can access the unseen realms and gain powerful insights that we will manifest through art making. As humans, we have a natural ability to access non-ordinary reality easily and we are SO good at it, we can even do it lying down - every single night - when we dream. With practice we can also access it when we are awake. What we see and sense there can have profound personal meaning that can be manifested into our waking lives by literally painting our dreams. This is the philosophy behind my workshop Dream in Watercolor, which although it involves creative materials, is WAY more than an art class. It’s a spiritual journey that has the potential to change your life.
In the past year since my first Dream in Watercolor workshop, I’ve developed a strong connection to the other realm that has not only influenced me, but also my family and entire circle of friends. Every day I am creating a life that is more grounded, present and accepting of unconditional love.

In this workshop, I will guide you through my process of tapping into the unseen realms using Shamanic Journey Meditation and channeling your experience with watercolor paint. You don’t have to consider yourself an artist to thrive here. Perhaps you are a writer, looking to spark new ideas, a busy professional desiring protected private time, a parent needing a blissful YOU moment or a therapist interested in learning a new self-discovery tool to bring to your sessions. This may be just the thing to unleash your creative spirit in a profound way. The focus is the process, not the product. It’s about letting go, connecting with your intuition, engaging in art making as a form of play and charting your own path to personal empowerment.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
In this deep exploration of painting imagery from the unseen realm, we begin by building a container that is grounded and supportive. We pull tarot cards and introduce ourselves, sharing a bit about what is present for us in the moment.
Next, we step through the portal into the unseen realm through Shamanic Journey Meditation. You are invited to leave your chair and find a comfortable spot in the room. I provide an introduction and we set an intention before embarking on an 20-30min meditation to a steady and soothing drum beat.
Following the meditation, we launch into an immersive creative flow, using the skills we have learned and the imagery we extracted from the meditation to manifest our visions into being. You are invited to begin by writing, drawing or jumping right back into painting. We also have the opportunity to share our meditative experiences with the group.
Finally, we bring our journey to a close. On completion of this workshop, you will have created your own channeled artwork, have a sense of confidence in yourself and ability to replicate this creative practice whenever you desire, and receive additional resources for continued exploration.
I love Dream In Watercolor with Erin. It’s one of the highlights of my month and I try to go every time. Erin’s presentation is professional, informative and very knowledgeable. She holds a safe space for sharing between participants and honors each and every person present. When we are there it is obvious that “you can’t get it wrong” as everyone’s art is acknowledged and delighted over.

WHAT TO BRING: Bring a curious mind, a journal and a water bottle if you wish. For the meditation portion, you may also like to bring a small blanket, pillow, yoga mat, cozy outer layer and/or eye mask. All painting materials will be provided.
SEATING: To allow for greater individual focus for each participant, this workshop has limited seats. Once a seat has been reserved, it’s no longer open for another participant. Due to the nature of advanced reserved seating, refunds or future credits are not available for missed workshops. If you are unable to attend, you may choose to transfer your seat to another person.
