Classes & Workshops

We embrace the beauty of transformation, taking what’s broken, forgotten, or discarded and giving it new life through creativity.

​Each piece we create tells a story of resilience, renewal, and the magic of second chances.

Discover the Art of Transformation

Transform Old Dishes & Discarded Materials into Art

Do you have items you don’t use but don’t want to throw away?

Bring new life to old dishes, cardboard, fabric scraps, or other materials in my Mosaic Art and Mixed Media Upcycling classes and workshops.

Explore painting, collage, stitching, mosaic assembly, and more as you transform everyday objects into meaningful, one-of-a-kind artworks. These art spaces encourage creativity, experimentation, and personal expression for all skill levels.

Materials are included, and you’re welcome to bring your own items or learn techniques to try at home.

Creative Transformation

A series of sessions where we explore meaningful life experiences through art, memory, and upcycling. Using found and reclaimed materials, we create symbolic pieces that honour moments of personal change with a loving, reflective, and sustainable approach.

Let me guide you through this transformative experience

Inspire. Connect. Create. Transform.

Bring creativity to your group on location!

Whether in-person or virtually in real-time, I will guide your group through a fun, relaxed, and inspiring experience that helps everyone tap into their inner artist.  No prior experience needed.

 

From painting and mixed media to collaborative art pieces, these workshops are designed to build connections, encourage self-expression, and leave everyone feeling recharged and creatively fulfilled.

Ideal for teams, seniors, youth, or families, each session is tailored to the group’s needs and designed to leave a meaningful and lasting impact.

What clients say

"Mariana directed one of the most entertaining and creative workshops we have had at South Granville Seniors Center (SGSC). The Community Creative Workshop for Seniors was delivered online via zoom in both English and Spanish for seniors and their grandchildren, and participants created beautiful pieces of art with the help and direction of Mariana. Our members were fully satisfied and happy to be able to create art developing their creativity in a friendly environment fostered by the artist.
Both SGSC and the members have been very happy with the results of her work, since, in addition to creating beautiful pieces of art, older adults feel productive and learn methods to make art with different materials."
