Travel-Inspired Small Works
What happens to your creative practice when you step away from the studio?
Join Mastrius Mentor Valerie Allen for a live one-hour demo and conversation about creating artwork when you’re not in your studio.
Valerie will share her approach to making small works inspired by travel, including how she gathers inspiration on the go, works with a simple setup, and develops ideas into finished pieces.
This demo is perfect for artists who want to stay creatively engaged while traveling, working in temporary spaces, or simply shifting out of their normal routine.
Valerie’s process is approachable, flexible, and focused on responding to the moments, places, and experiences that spark curiosity and inspiration.
You will learn:
- What materials and tools work well for on-the-go art-making
- Ways to capture inspiration while traveling
- Approaches for developing small studies and travel-inspired works
- Tips for staying creatively connected outside your usual routine
Bring your questions and join us for an inspiring behind-the-scenes look at Valerie’s creative process on the road.

Meet Valerie Allen
Acrylic | Mixed Media | Printmaking
As an abstract painter intuitive process begins a journey for me that culminates in passages of intentional design for each work of art. Using principles of improvisation, I work from prompts that present themselves through journaling, traveling, even daydreaming. The known improv prompt “yes and……” shows up in each of my paintings as multiple layers. My theme touchstones include music as shown in my Composer’s Campaign series, architecture in Athena’s Timeline collection, and personal history in the One Hundred Years paintings.
The mantra for my creative path is to repeat these three words – process, produce and present. Those words encourage my growth as an artist through the experimentation of materials and techniques that reveal new processes and through the production of art to become more prolific. When those two steps are complete, I move into the presentation of my work to others through conversations and exhibitions.
