“I’ve done so many online courses but I am just LOVING yours so so much, my art is growing exponentially. I’ve only been painting for a year and I’m so excited about the paintings I’ve been able to do. I just love your lessons, and somehow you manage to have the most wonderful community of people that are so happy and willing to share and take the time to comment on other peoples paintings, it’s the most uplifting thing I’ve ever done. Thank you.”
– Angela Brisbane
“I’m taking your [e-course] and I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your inner beauty and bountiful wisdom. I have a history with ailments like seasonal affective disorder and anxiety, so it can be hard to function. Your meditation has been my go-to when I need to calm down, and I try to paint as often now. I’m noticing how grace seems to manifest, something I never would have taken note of if not for your lessons. I can’t tell you how much YOU have contributed to my mental stability! I’m filled with motivation and a renewal to enjoy life! This class has been cure I needed that no doctor could prescribe.“
– A. Monroe

My name is Alena (A-lee-na) and I’m a lover of fluid color, botanical detail, and heartfelt expression. I feel we are all born to create and there is no such thing as perfection in the name of creativity. The only perfection is the coming and going of this breath, which keeps us alive… all else is play.
My life’s work is to open people up to the rich understanding that they are gifted just as they are and to make art by expressing the flawed beauty or Wabi Sabi aesthetic. From understanding the principles of art we can then break them and grow as artists.
I have been teaching art for over 17 years, with thousands of students participants enrolled in my online classes. I lead retreats and workshops both at my studio and around the world. I also have 4 books out on painting, the creative process, and flower essences and have exhibited in galleries and a few museums. Ultimately, my sincere interest also lies in connecting to Nature, Spirit, and our shared humanity. Being a Reiki Master, Flower Essence Practitioner, and space holder for women infuses into every aspect of my work.

“Because of this wonderful class – which is so gloriously rich and so realistically paced – I have created my first series of paintings, something I never thought I would do. Five smaller paintings inspired by elements of a larger piece (not yet complete), with more to come. Thank you Alena Hennessy for helping me to achieve this (in between full time work and being a mama). Anything is possible.”
