About the Instructor:

As studio owner, Karen considers Root Studio her most important work to date. She is extremely dedicated to the creative process, inspiring and encouraging others to utilize creative practice for well-being. For Karen, it's all about the process, ever evolving and innovating. Her desire is to inspire people to unplug and consider spending time exploring, making time to dream, nurturing their curiosity, and taking time to just be. This is time well spent.

Her own experiences with creative practice have continually offered a window to new perspectives and personal growth, as well as deep satisfaction, which she believes would not have occurred otherwise. Karen was so impassioned by her creative explorations, she wanted to build a creative practice space so that others could experience these benefits too… and Root Studio was born.
