Color & Conversations is a curated art experience designed for boutique hotels, cafés, cultural spaces, retreats, and private events. Each session blends live painting, guided art‑making, and relaxed conversation, offering guests a calm, creative moment rooted in place and presence. Curated guest-experience add-on, a signature activity hotels can offer to differentiate their stay, and a bookable private or small-group session for guests seeking something personal and non-touristy.

Not in the traditional sense. Color & Conversations is an experience, not a lesson. Guests are guided gently through the creative process, with the focus on experienment, exploration, enjoyment, and connection. We will use different techniques, such as salt, toothbrushes, toilet paper, palstic wrap. etc., all creating an exciting experience. They’re an invitation to slow down, trust your instincts, and let language emerge through making. Paint From The Heart: Pour, drip, and splash your way to wild, expressive landscapes.

The core offering for venues is the Experimental & Technique-Focused workshop line:

• Build Your Own Session
• Texture Lab
• Flow Mechanics
• Memory Landscapes
• Color Atmosphere & Glaze

Delivered as private one-on-one sessions or small groups of 3–10, indoors or on location. All sessions are led personally by Jeff Bruzdzinski, include full materials, and send each guest home with a finished, tactile memory of their time in Galicia.

No prior art experience is required.

No. Sessions are facilitated in English, but language is used naturally and gently. Many guests participate comfortably with limited English, and Spanish speakers often find the experience a relaxed way to engage with the language without pressure.

The focus is always on the art and the experience.

Depending on format, pricing is offered as a flat-fee session or price per person designed to be venue‑friendly and easy to plan. For reference, most group experiences typically work out to $35-55 per guest, depending on group size and format. One-on-One / Couples Session are a flat fee of $120.

Examples:

• One-on-One / Couples Session | 1–2 guests | (typically 90–120 minutes)| $120 flat (all materials incl.)
• Express Pop-Up (Hotels) | 3–10 guests | (typically 90) | $35 per person (3-person minimum)
• Small Group (standard) | 3–10 guests | (typically 90–120 minutes) | $45 per person (3-person minimum)

Why is the 1-on-1 / Couples session $120 instead of the group rate?

The $120 covers a fully private session, just you (or you and a guest) and me, for the full 90–120 minutes. Nothing is shared: not the time, not the materials, not the pace.

In a small group, guests split the cost of one session across 3–10 people. In a 1-on-1, that same block of time, planning, setup, materials, and full attention, is dedicated to just one or two people. You're not paying more for the paint; you're paying for the space to go at your own pace, ask questions freely, and get guidance shaped entirely around you.

If you're deciding between formats: choose 1-on-1 if you want a private, personal experience or are working through something specific. Choose Small Group if you'd rather share the experience (and the cost) with others.

How it works:

• You’ll see the session price listed in USD.
• Your bank or card provider will convert the payment to EUR automatically.
• Most European cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) support international payments.
• Some banks may apply a small foreign transaction fee (usually 1–3%).

Custom proposals are available.

Most sessions last 90-180 minutes, though formats can be adapted for shorter events, half‑day programs, or full‑day retreats depending on the venue and goals.

Very little.

Yes, both small groups and 1-on-1 sessions are available and can take place in a home, studio, or private setting. Wheather it's your house or my studio all art materials, (papers, paints, palettes, aprons, etc.) and facilitation are provided. Typically you only need to offer:

• A suitable space (tables and chairs)
• Basic access to water
• Optional projection or wall space

The experience is designed to integrate smoothly into existing operations inside or outdoors.

Group size depends on the format and space, but most group sessions work well with 3–10 participants. 1-on-1 and couples available. Larger groups of 20+ people can be accommodated with advance planning.

All sessions are led by Jeff Bruzdzinski, an artist and facilitator based in Galicia. Jeff brings decades of experience in visual communication, creative direction, and group facilitation, creating experiences that feel thoughtful, generous, and human.

Just bring yourself and wear comfortable clothes. We provide the rest!

Yes.

Each participant leaves with an artwork they created during the session, a tangible reminder of the experience. Generally, the art is small enough to store flat in your suitcase. In most cases, the art is 10x14 inches (26x36cm) watercolor paper. Optional Add-ons: Premium Upgrade: (+$10/person): premium paper & larger size (16x20in | 40.6 x 50.8cm)
