Our group classes are held in our cozy studio that comfortably accommodates up to six people. In the warmer months, group classes can be moved outside on the farmstead. Our group class schedule is posted to our website, Facebook page and emailed to our email tribe members at least a month in advance.
Group classes at the studio are held as long as there is at least one participant. All participants are required to pay in advance or make arrangements with Natalee when scheduling to provide alternative payment.
Our group classes are also held at other venues! We are always excited to collaborate with local businesses to provide their patrons with events and classes.
We currently collaborate with:
The Fox Den Coffee Shop (Albion, IN)
Sage + Stone (Columbia City, IN)
Bremen Arts Collective (Bremen, IN)
Partners 4 Healing (Fort Wayne, IN)
Would you like to see a class or event come to your favorite store or shop?

Restorative Art Classes are meant to be completed in a series, but can be completed individually and in no specific order. Each course begins with a guided meditation or breathing exercise.
Painting by Senses
All Skill Levels - 12+
A two-hour restorative art class focused on stress reduction, self-awareness, emotional intelligence skill building, and reducing self-limiting beliefs, perfectionism, and releasing fear-based control. The class begins with a centering and soothing meditation or deep breathing exercise, followed by the start of a blind painting. While blindfolded, you will use your senses to create a painting based on the emotions that you feel while listening to a series of musical pieces. After the music ends, your canvas will be traded for a fresh one and your blindfold will be removed. With a fresh canvas, the same music will begin for you to create a painting based on your emotional response to the music. Finally, your initial painting will be revealed to you to admire and compare.
Musical Easels
All Skill Levels - 12+
A two-hour exploratory class in mixed media focused on stress reduction, collaboration/team building, communication skills development, increasing problem solving skills and releasing domineering behaviors. The class will begin with minimal instruction to begin and will be provided with time to start gathering items for the canvas. Once everyone in the class is ready with initial materials, the time will begin, and each person will have an allotted amount of time to add materials to the canvas. When the time is up, each person will rotate to the next canvas and begin to add materials to it. Each person will rotate through all of the canvases in the group and end back at their canvas to add finishing touches. *Time for the course and time spent on each canvas is dependent on the class size.
Intuitive Painting
All Skill Levels - 12+
A two-hour self-exploratory class focused on increasing self-confidence, enhancing intuition, and promoting creativity. This class begins with a guided meditation through which you will create your artwork’s landscape in your mind’s eye. With help from your creative guide, you will translate your landscape onto your canvas using your initial instincts on color and design.
We are always looking for opportunities to expand our offerings. New classes may rotate in from time to time. Some classes may be offered monthly, quarterly, or annually.
Here is a sneak peak at some of the classes we are working on:
Back II Basics: Graphite & Charcoal

Plein Air Workshop
Fiber Processing Workshop
Interested? Send me an email and let me know which you would like to see first!
Whether we are in the studio, we will supply all the necessary equipment, supplies, and instruction for the group class. This includes creating an inviting, relaxing and cozy space for you to let your creativity flow, art supplies needed for the class to complete your project, and making sure that the space is returned to its clean and natural state after our session ends.
Our group classes are equipped with the tools that we use for our personal art projects. We want you to enjoy the same quality that we do. In fact, during our Back II Basics courses, we will explore some of the other tools and supplies in the studio while we create.
When selecting venues for group classes, we take into consideration the travel time. We love to collaborate with your local businesses and collectives. The further we need to travel, the more likely there will be either an increase in the cost of the class, a minimum number of participants necessary to hold the class, or a combination of both.
We require that you pay for your class in full when you make your reservation. You are welcome to register and provide your payment on our website using a credit card, PayPal or Google Pay.
If you are not a huge fan of using the internet for purchases, we understand! To make arrangements for an alternative payment method (cash, check, Venmo, etc.), send me an email at natalee@artfultransformations.art or call/text 260.229.5902 to make reservations.
For a refund, please contact me for a cancellation no less than 48 hours prior to your scheduled class for any reason. A full refund, less the transaction fee of $2, will be refunded to you in the method that you provided payment.
We completely understand that things happen! If you need to reschedule your reservation for a group class, please let us know as soon as possible. We will provide you with upcoming dates for the same, or different classes, and can change your reservation over to your new date/class.
INCLEMENT WEATHER
In this great state we often have some pretty unpredictable weather. There may be times when a class is rescheduled or cancelled due to inclement weather. If this happens, you will be notified of the cancellation and given the option to attend another class or another date. The class will be rescheduled when possible. Virtual options may also be provided.
Your safety and the safety of our staff is paramount!
