Where Art Becomes a Blessing
Painting Parties & Watercolor Artwork
Book a Party
Hi, I’m Carissa, the artist behind Simply Blessed Watercolor. My watercolor work is rooted in beauty, peace, and purpose—and I’m passionate about sharing it with others. Whether I’m painting a delicate bloom or guiding a group through a creative night of laughter and brushstrokes, my hope is always the same: to bring a little joy and inspiration into your world.
Create. Connect. Celebrate. Gather your people and let’s paint! My group watercolor classes are perfect for birthdays, team building, church groups, or just a much-needed girls’ night in. I bring the supplies, you bring the smiles.
Step One: Gather Your Group
Looking for a fun, creative way to connect? Choose a painting party theme that fits your group:
Team Building
Build collaboration, creativity, and connection through a relaxed, hands-on experience your team will remember.
Youth Group
Bring your students together with an interactive and faith-filled art session—fun, meaningful, and mess-free!
Ladies Night
Sip, snack, and paint! Whether it’s for a birthday, bridal shower, or just because—it’s a perfect night out (or in).
Step Two: Select Your Piece
Choose from a collection of beginner-friendly watercolor projects tailored to your group. From florals to seasonal scenes, there’s something everyone can enjoy. Custom options available for themed events or special occasions!

Step Three: Pick Your Date
Let’s find a date that works! I travel throughout Northeast Illinois and Southeast Wisconsin, bringing all the supplies and encouragement you need for a memorable painting party.
Art that lifts the spirit and glorifies God.
Carissa’s mission is to create peaceful artwork that makes the viewer want to immerse themselves in the art in one way or another, to please or lift up God first and foremost, and to create a calm or encouraging environment for all who see.
