Through my own artistic journey spanning 40+ years, I have tapped into the many benefits of painting, observing & learning from nature. The most valuable of which is the positive lens through which I see the world as an artist. Whether you’re a student or whether you can’t draw a stick-man, I want to share with you what I’ve learned to help you cultivate more POSITIVITY, more GRATITUDE and explore deeper CONNECTION through not only art but every day life.

Hi! I’m Crystal Beshara,

I’m an artist, illustrator and arts educator. My work has been featured in Fine Art Connoisseur, International Artist Magazine, American Art Collector and I have been interviewed on Canadian Art Daily, CTV, CBC, TVO and Curator on-the-Go

As a farm kid raised by two creative parents, I was surrounded by inspiration and I drew just about every single day. After obtaining my BFA, I turned my passion for painting into a 25+ year career as an artist, illustrator and arts educator; offering workshops all over the world.

I’ve witnessed beautiful changes and positive impacts in the lives of thousands of students who were just like you! I’ve spent hundreds of thousands of hours listening, and observing their needs as well as teaching not only how to draw and paint but most importantly HOW TO SEE. For the last few years I’ve been delving deeper into the psychology of how this intersects with our connection to nature, each other (and ourselves) when we make art a part of our daily or weekly routine. Learn the positive benefits of art making (if you choose) and activating your “artist’s eye” through motivational posts, musings, exercises and videos!
