She gave herself to art.
My name is Connie Solera. I create art, teach, travel, and write in order to inspire every woman to pick up her paintbrush, let go of her fears, and sink into the artist her heart is calling her to be.
In my past, I skimmed the surface by doing the typical things a “good-lil-artist” should do. But it wasn’t until I stopped doing what was expected of me and started following my own truth that my life cracked wide open. From that moment on, art has been my compass, my mirror, and an endless adventure.

She shape-shifted like the moon.

They love it even more when I tell them that every cell in my body told me it was time — that it was my intuition that lead the way.

This Is A BIG Weekend!
I believe with all my heart that retreats are an important part of an artist’s sanity and power. We need time away from our daily routines and responsibilities to dig deep into our own creative wells or to simply fill them back up again.
