Format: In-Person at The Well | The facilitator will be in person.

Facilitator: Dr. Ann Viernes

Dr. Ann Viernes developed a love for nature and art early on. She pursued science and art, studying biology at DePaul University and working in laboratory medicine and healthcare for over 40 years. She earned her Doctorate in Health Sciences (DHSc) from Rush University in 2009. After retiring, she followed her dream of becoming an artist, traveling and taking courses in painting and jewelry.
In 2020, Dr. Viernes participated in an online Summer Solstice Retreat by Woman Unleashed, which inspired her to open Purple Sun Arts LLC in Oak Park, IL. This space offers art, a boutique, and a creative learning center. She is a Certified Cosmic Smashbook™ Guide, a Cosmic Transformational Life Coach, and a certified Art Medicine™ Practitioner.
As a multimedia artist, she teaches gel monoprinting, art journaling, and offers transformational life coaching. Her workshops focus on healing through art, creating layered portal paintings. Her artwork includes acrylic, ink, watercolor, collage, and objects from nature. She also curates work from other artists, fostering a community of creativity and healing.
