Spending one-one one time in an art retreat, for a day or two or three, is a power experience for women who want to connect to the artist inside them with loving guidance. It is a gift they give themselves, and it‘s a joy for me to work with them in this way.

Here is what some of my retreat clients have said:

I decided to give LIVING BIG a try after speaking with Rochelle via phone and spending time exploring her website. As a graphic designer feeling stuck, I believed that Rochelle would understand some of what I have endured as a person who works exclusively on client projects and never created for myself. I was correct. We spent two days together looking at art, creating art and talking about art along with many other things related to how I live my life. I am now determined to find pockets of time to take out my pastels, to copy what I see, and to create — in exciting new ways. I hope to connect with Rochelle again soon. She is insightful, helpful, talented and extremely encouraging.
With Rochelle’s patience, kindness, warmth and support I was able to discover a wealth of creativity. The time we spent together was a welcome, new adventure! I was able to discover an art goddess within myself, and I connected to powerful inner beauty.

The wonderful environment and amazing supplies made it easy to get started. Rochelle took me to places I did not dream possible! Time disappeared while we created, and it felt like I had taken a mini vacation. 

I’ve attended Rochelle’s workshop in the past, and now this retreat. After each I have walked away with inspiration to continue an art practice at home and with new ideas for keeping creativity flowing. It has also helped me at work, adding creativity to my writing and to developing ideas for the programs I plan.
