🎨 What's inspiring you these days 🎨
Hello Creative Soul,
We kicked off our 6 week summer series last week with the question, "What are you curious about these days?" Your answer can be big and grand or teeny tiny and doesn't need to be art related. I find this question to be inspiring when we are feeling creative and expansive when we are feeling shut down.
Right now, I'm curious about: creative conversation starters to stay connected with my teen daughter as her current stage of development pulls her away. I'm curious about what wants to appear in these little, secret, spaces that unfolded in a current painting of mine. I'm curious how art making will survive/thrive in a world increasingly shaped by AI and how my meeting with a Medium will go this week (!).
In a world that sometimes feels too fast for my nervous system, remaining curious is a gentle practice that helps me return to center.
What are you curious about these days? I'd love to hear.
Big Love,
Elissa 💕
Upcoming Workshops
Sunday, August 10th from 11-4PM: Transforming Triggers Through Printmaking Join Mary Gambarony, Art Therapist and Certified Jungian Life Coach for a hands on workshop. Through journaling, guided visualization, group reflection and screen printing, we will explore the unconscious assumptions and projections that fuel emotional reactions. So many of us had profound experiences in Mary's first workshop that we invited her back. I transformed triggering dominance into powerful agency. Curious? I was too. Mary is the perfect mix of skilled clinician, good fun and trustworthy guide.
Friday, September 19th from 10AM-12PM: Cacao Ceremony With Casey
Join us for a Cacao Ceremony with Casey Mauro. During this unique event, we’ll sip cacao and explore its multidimensional healing benefits through breathwork, movement and meditation. Curious? Me too? That's why we invited to Casey to come teach, guide and share all things Cacao with us.
