The Art of Seeing™

Painting Classes
with Carmen Lund

2026

A weekly journey into creativity, perception, and self-expression.

The Art of Seeing™ offers a supportive, engaging way to learn how to truly see—and translate what you see into expressive artwork. Drawing on over 25 years of teaching experience, Carmen Lund’s innovative approach helps students work intuitively with color, composition, and materials while building confidence and joy in the creative process. Please share with any friends who might want to explore their creative side.

You will explore watercolor and oil pastels while learning how the elements of art come together—through play, experimentation, and guided discovery!!!

No pressure. No judgment. Just exploring and expanding your creativity!

Testimonials

  • Seeing the world with new eyes is what Carmen has done for me. Thank you!

    Ann Diaz

  • The Art of Seeing class was so amazing, I took it from you twice, each time I saw more and couldnt believe how I drew what I saw so easily. I see details now in nature I have not observed before your classes. Thank you for helping me tap into my creativity!

    Judith Gulliver

  • When I took the classes with Carmen, I felt like that kid who painted with no expectations or prejudices. With her classes you can start painting from your essence, seeing in another way what we take for granted. I love Carmen’s style of teaching.
