Come hang with us at La Lomita as we host Artist Chris Dyer for a 6 day retreat. Chris is a Peruvian-Canadian visual artist now residing in Saint Petersburg, Florida. As a world and dimensions traveler, he experiences different cultures and re-expresses them into his vision of Oneness. He serves as a bridge-builder between different art movements, from skateboard graphics, visionary paintings, street art murals and more. Chris wants to break the boxes and see everything becoming one harmonious reality. Chris’s art has been featured in many museums around the world including the Bob Marley Museum in Jamaica, the Straat Museum in Amsterdam, Entheon in New York, and more. Chris has had five books published so far and has been featured in many other art books and magazines worldwide. He also Sold Out a NFT of 5555 pieces back in 2021, creating a community called the “Galaktic Gang”. Though his subject matters are as varied as his styles, his art is just a reflection of his personal spiritual journey. At the start of 2026 we hosted Chris, and his wife Paulina, to come and paint a mural for us. What Chris created for La Lomita was a Portal of Positivity. I feel grateful and the magic it has added to our peaceful sanctuary is beyond words. Want to feel the vibration? Come spend 6 days disconnecting, relaxing and become one with the Mindo-Nambillo Cloud Forest.
