Step into the bold, intimate world of Georgia O’Keeffe in this relaxing Art Bar experience. Using a pre-sketched canvas, you’ll recreate a painting inspired by her iconic Blue Morning Glories while exploring color, form, and expressive simplicity.
With step-by-step guidance from Jessica Mahan, you’ll learn how to blend smooth gradients, create soft transitions, and build depth within organic shapes. This class focuses on slowing down, observing closely, and translating natural forms into flowing, expressive compositions. Sip, relax, and create in a laid-back, social atmosphere—whether you come with friends or on your own, you’ll leave with something you’re proud of.
All materials are provided, along with two beverages (wine, beer, or non-alcoholic) and light snacks. Students also receive a 10% discount in the gift shop the day of class. Wear something you don’t mind getting a little paint on—we take care of all setup and cleanup.

Jessica MahanJessica Mahan is a professional acrylic and oil painter and an art teacher with a degree in Art Education and Secondary Education. She previously taught art in the public school system for 7 years, has been a professional artist for 8 years and loves sharing her love of art with others through classes, workshops, retreats and paint at home kits. She is in awe of the natural world. Nature has the ability to wake up her mind to the present moment, sparking ideas and insight. The resulting paintings are vivid, emotional, playful and dreamlike. Her art practice helps her slow down and notice the world around her by examining shapes, colors, movement rhythms and light. She often uses symbolism and thinks of her work as visual poetry. Outside of art, she loves travel, yoga, nature, music and hanging out with her dog.
