Art Sales Up 15% For Artist Alena Hennessy

Alena Hennessy began making art at a very young age, way before she could write. She would spend hours upon hours drawing on the back of her Grandmother’s dittos from school, making up imaginary worlds. Since then her love of creating has evolved– branching out with a deep desire to assist others in finding their true voice in painting and mixed media art.

Alena is the author of Cultivating Your Creative Life, The Painting Workbook, Intuitive Painting Workshop, and beloved teacher of the art-making process, both online and at select retreats.

Her work has been featured in numerous magazines and publications, including Dwell, The Washington Post, Somerset Life, Spirituality & Health, ReadyMade, Redbook, Stitch, Victoria, and Natural Health magazine, as well as getting featured on Good Morning America and pilot shows for ABC Studios.

Her paintings have been exhibited across major cities in the U.S., along with several museum shows. Alena is also a flower essence practitioner, along with being a Reiki master and energy healer. As a facilitator, she intends that each participant leave a little more transformed, content, and open to wild possibility.

"My brand is me --I am an artist, author, and facilitator of retreats/workshops at alenahennessy.com. My studio and home are located in the lush mountains of Asheville, North Carolina.”
