My creative life has surprised me!

I lived a conventional life until I was 29 years old...

and then my awakening...

TECHNIQUE CREATIVITY: As a young, aesthetically concerned, product-focused gallery artist, I married in my twenties and had a child. I was stuck in a normative box of conditioned conventionality, always looking outside myself for security, support, love and approval. Then, I began drawing and painting spontaneously during pregnancy and early motherhood.

DEPTH CREATIVITY: Most of my early expressive art revealed female figures with covered-up mouths, unexpressed, aching eyes, and a longing to be honest. Then, after five close members of my family died in the space of a year, I experienced a six-month spiritual awakening and saw a completely different vision for my life.

Within six months

I changed my entire life... 

MYSTICAL CREATIVITY: For six months, I awoke to the spiritual reality of my life and experienced only Love, no shame, guilt, sadness, anger or fear. I had prophetic dreams, left my marriage, and fell in love with my soul mate. Together with my daughter, we left the big city to start a mystical creative life in the mountains of Canada.

DEPTH CREATIVITY: Settling down into regular family life, my unhealed inner child's emotional pain returned full force, and an unsettling depression set in. I felt creatively blocked, flat, sad and empty. I felt called to attune to and clear out my inner child's core wounding, blocking access to my soul's originality through expressive art and writing.

MY AIM

is to offer you deeply creative ways to clear the early conditioning that blocks your originality.

INTUITIVE CREATIVITY: The spontaneity of intuitive art and writing bypasses the ego defence system that, from an inner child place, looks outside of itself for love, approval, security and survival. Intuitive creativity arises after you clear a layer of wounding from your shadow. With spontaneity, you can clear out your creative blocks and intuitively access what is original in you. 

DEPTH CREATIVITY: I have developed hundreds of expressive art and writing directives that invite you to explore and attune to stuck emotions in ways that bypass defensive ego thinking. Expressive art is not about creating a beautiful end product; it is about discovering the strength within you, so that you can heal your inner child wounding and live your life from a higher level of freedom, originality, and creativity.

TO HEAL IS TO MAKE WHOLE. WHAT IS WHOLE CAN HAVE NO MISSING PARTS THAT HAVE BEEN NEGLECTED.

STAGES OF CREATIVITY

Where are you on your creative journey?

TECHNIQUE 

CREATIVITY

Conscious Mind/Ego Creativity

Technique Creativity is how we first learned to make art in school. It is an ego confidence building, outside-in approach that focuses on technique development and intentionally creating an aesthetically pleasing and uplifting looking end product.

Viewing your art as better or worse than others, rather than celebrating your unique self-expression, is a common pitfall at this stage. Many women have told me they acquired "art wounds" in grade school when told they had no "artistic talent." 

Technique Creativity is enhanced by cultivating artistic skills, looking to other artists for inspiration and ideas, and a dedication to learning about composition, colour theory, and design principles. Once learned, you can take techniques into your expressive, intuitive and mystical art.

DEPTH

CREATIVITY

Subconscious Inner Child Creativity

Depth Creativity utilizes expressive art and writing (no artistic talent or techniques required) to reveal and heal your subconscious inner child imprints and core wounding. It is often mysteriously surprising to see that, underneath childhood wounding, is your original soul self. 

Depth Creativity supports self-discovery, self-reflection and self-attunement. Discovering, reflecting and attuning to the inner child parts of yourself that were rejected and neglected during your early socialization will help you recognize what feels alone and unloved within, so you can reconnect to your soul.

Depth Creativity releases the accumulation in your emotional pain body, revealing the core attachment wounds from childhood that keep you feeling small, alone and afraid. 

INTUITIVE

CREATIVITY

Soul Connected Creativity

Once you clear your shadow (childhood hurt and early attachment wounds) with depth-oriented expressive arts practices, you will have greater access to your intuition, allowing you to express your soul's originality.

Intuitive Creativity expresses your soul's truth through encouraging words and uplifting images. It will illustrate the core of your soul's original identity buried under your earthly wounds and traumas. Intuitive Creativity is the bridge to Mystical Creativity.

Intuitive Creativity also oscillates back to Depth Creativity, creating more space for your intuition. Whenever something is blocking your soul's original expression, expressive art and writing can help you see and attend to the childhood emotional blockage with Love. Once your mind is quiet and clear, you can access your intuition. 

MYSTICAL

CREATIVITY

Divine/God Connected Creativity

Once your ego shadow is cleared and forgiven, and you have ongoing access to your intuition, you can co-create with divine guidance in connection with higher spiritual principles.

Mystical Creativity expresses your soul's unique artistry in connection with the All. There might be a higher compositional eloquence that wants to express universal themes of spiritual inspiration through you, for example. 

Mystical Creativity is connected to the whole; full of sychroncities and miracles. Mystical creativity is enhanced through meditation, contemplation and quieting the ego thought system.

You might spontaneously burst into tears or laugh joyously when you co-create with the Divine because you no longer feel so separate from Unconditional Love.
