SoulPainting Paradise: Restore, Dream, Awaken



















A PLACE WHERE TIME CEASES TO EXIST
“Painting has made my life full. Painting has replaced everything. I don’t think there’s anything better than this.” – Frida Kahlo
You are warmly invited to come to my custom retreat residences + sparking studio to restore your spirit beyond. This eco-luxury artist residency home nestled within the hundreds of acres that is the Musa community (includes 5 star hotel, multiple pools, water temple, regenerative gardens + more). Casa Ollin + Artist Studio is a mini retreat space that includes a yoga deck. The energy of this place is pure bliss. Just imagine glorious sunrise, sun and moonsets each evening… whales breaching, turtles hatching, copal burning. A once in a lifetime opportunity. Overflow participants will stay in a gorgeously designed hideaway (just as equipped, with kitchen, showers, and luxury beds around the biopool). Every property on Musa is 5 star eco- and design oriented (listed in Forbes, National Geographic and more as one of the most beautiful hotels and resorts in the world).
Please note: Spaces are limited and both residency retreats are kept small. This will provide opportunity for a deep dive into whatever you are wanting to create, whether it’s a painting series that stuns and is true to your vision (and discovering with Alena what that vision is), arts business, and yes unlocking the codes and mysteries of the universe with the temple of your being. We are made for these times to recover, heal, and shine from our higher self.
What’s Included:
- Accommodation at the 5 star eco-resort of Musa (a private bedroom + bathroom).
- Mentoring and personalized lessons with Alena for uninterrupted studio time. This priceless experience will expand your skill and fulfillment as artist with (and arts business as an option).
- Transportation to Musa.
- A day at the award winning Playa Viva resort (Michelin keys restaurant, regenerative farming and yoga paradise). This includes 3 incredible meals + yoga class. So divine!
- Ceremonia de Cacao with Alena’s favorite diosa and ritualist Adriana.
- An adventure to local market of the Zihuatenejo (riviera town and a Puebla Magica).
- Some art supplies provides from Alena as well.
- There will also be some light breakfast, fruit, drink, and snack items in the main kitchen for you to enjoy. Please note: You are responsible for all other meals at the dreamy restaurant Alma (quite affordable).
- A few more surprises. This is the land of ceremony, wildness, and color.
Please note: You are responsible for all other meals at the dreamy restaurant Alma (quite affordable), besides the day at the Playa Viva resort + fridge stocking.
Please choose from two timeframes for this year:
October 30-November 5.

The weather will warm during the day to 68 to 88 on the Pacific Coast. This is the glorious sun-filled tropics!
How to get here:
Getting to this area is easy! You fly straight into the cute airport of ZIH (Near the Mexican riviera resort town of Zihuatanejo – which is the famous landmark of the ending of the film the Shawshank Redemption). From the States, Alena recommends a layover in one of the major Texas airports and then straight into ZIH. From the West Coast, it is even easier!
