Artistic Function
Join me in this fun & creative online course as we turn a pile of fabric scraps into an artistic and functional piece of art. These fabric vessels are perfect for holding your paint brushes, colored pencils and also makes for a great holiday gift.
In this easy and fun course, I take you through step-by-step in creating a handmade one-of-a-kind vessel where you will incorporate different pieces of fabric and stitching (or embroidery). I will also show you how to bring multiple vessels together to create a caddy.

Integrating both her artistic and psychology background Lisa’s worked with artists and creative professionals on their careers and creative process.
From her own personal experience working in the studio and facing typical challenges with the creative process, Lisa understands first hand the struggles and blocks that keeps us from accessing our True Creativity Within.
She believes everyone is born an artist. It’s how you stay connected to that innate desire to be creative as we become adults. Lisa believes when we connect to our creativity without judgment, expectations and the need for our art to be perfect or a master piece, we draw from a deep resource and connect to our creative intuition.
Taking time to honor your creative spirit is just as essential as a good night’s rest, exercise and eating right. It provides benefits both spiritually and mentally. Lisa believes any sort of creative practice, whether it’s writing, dancing or crafts, can be meditative and stress-reducing. It’s an activity that can ground us in our daily life. Therefore, Lisa encourages others to do something creative on a regular bases and not deprive oneself from access Creative Spirit. This can lead to a sense of inner wholeness and wellbeing.
Lisa has been teaching both in-person and virtual workshops for the last 9 years. She also host and leads her signature retreat “Awaken the Invisible Power of Your Creativity” annually. For more information about Lisa and to view her artwork visit ArtbyLisaAgaran.com
