The Calm Waters Collective

A mindful art community where creativity, nature, and reflection flow together.

In the Calm Waters Collective, we gather artists, journalers, and seekers who long for a slower, more meaningful creative practice. Through art journaling, watercolour, and mixed media, we explore the beauty of imperfection, the wisdom of nature, and the quiet joy of making.

Our collective thrives on mindful making in Zoom lessons, Studio Hangouts, community sharing, tools and techniques tutorials and gentle journaling. If you want to create, but struggle to make time or know what to paint when you sit down, this is a space for you.

Grow your art in stillness and flow
