Gather. Relax. Create.

Join me for a different way to experience the Finger Lakes


The Finger Lakes region is one of beauty, taste, and endless wonder.

I want to help you experience it from behind the easel.

Let’s paint the Finger Lakes!

In this unique-to-your-group experience, we’ll craft a morning or afternoon of plein air painting, selecting a new-to-you, outdoor location that perfectly suits your people.

We’ll start the experience with a demo, then I’ll guide your group members through paintings of their own.

We’ll paint. We’ll sip. We’ll laugh. And your group will go home with a painting that captures the beauty of our region.


Let’s tap into your creative side…

...even if you think it doesn’t exist. Artists of all levels welcome. Especially beginners. 😉

All you have to do is show up. I’ll bring the supplies!

By the way! I’m Cindy -- your creative guide.

I’m an award-winning plein air artist who truly believes the Finger Lakes region is one of the most beautiful places on the planet. It’s my dream to share both my love of our area and the therapy that art and painting provides with you.

I cannot wait to introduce you to our area’s best kept secrets and help put you in touch with your creativity while amongst nature that’s sure to soothe you.

Let’s craft the perfect experience for your group.
