This new chapter allows us to dive deeper into creativity, artistry, and personal expression, fostering a truly transformative journey unlike any other.
Dear Creative Soul,
Imagine immersing yourself in a private, luxury art retreat, where every detail is designed to nurture your creativity and personal expression. My exclusive one-day, three-day, and five-day retreats offer a bespoke journey into artistic discovery, taking place in my personal studio behind the Santa Fe Opera—a serene haven where inspiration flourishes, set within our private 300-acre estate.
What Awaits You:
One-on-one painting sessions with me, learning my exclusive techniques for daily creative inspiration
Private visits to Santa Fe’s most renowned galleries and/or artist studios
Cocktails at my personal home, an intimate gathering to discuss art and creativity
An immersive experience in my expansive studio, surrounded by my curated art collection and breathtaking scepter garden
Luxury dining experiences with renowned local chefs, featuring artfully prepared meals and/or curated wine pairings
Optional wellness sessions such as private yoga, meditation, and/or guided nature walks to enhance creative flow

As a guest, you will depart with one, two, or even more completed paintings, tangible expressions of your creative journey.

Exclusive Creative Coaching & Artistic Mentorship with Robbi Firestone
For visionary leaders, innovators, and high-performing executives, creativity is more than a luxury—it is a gateway to clarity, innovation, and fulfillment.
