When we do what we love most, when we seek and trust our inner light, when we express it and share it, when we come together and support each other creatively, we make the world a better place.

Maybe that's because the solstice is approaching, but I'm more than ever fascinated by the play of Light and Shadow these days. And texture. And color... So here's a peek at what I'm up to lately: new, big abstract paintings, a solo show, encaustic wax and Layers of Light… Read on!

Making art is a physical experience: my hands and my whole body are as involved as my soul. It's a dance between this physicality and the deeply spiritual side of the process. Whispers and touch... There's something so intimate about this.

So many exciting things going on at the moment! New art, new classes, a treehouse and some top secret projects… the studio is buzzing with abstracts, fibers, flowers, art journals and more… Come on in!

Creating with intuition sometimes feels like catching butterflies: the more you chase it, the more it eludes you… But the moment you let go, it starts dancing and fluttering, and before you know it, it gently lands on your hand, dazzling you with wonder…

What does the creative process feel like to you? To me, it feels like turning inward and letting light shine from within. Closing my eyes and feeling my wings...

The Artist & the Journal is my new art journaling and painting online class! It's all about building your confidence, growing your wings and taking the leap from the intimate space of the page to the wide open space of the canvas!

Making my own art journal is really what got me started with the practice. Find out more and create yours with this free video tutorial!

My first art journal page of 2018 is all about welcoming and exploring my "word of the year". Join me as I share the whole process on video!

I feel so incredibly grateful for all the growth, the beauty and the gifts that 2017 has brought into my life, and I thought that one of the best ways to express it, was to give back something special and beautiful...

Working intuitively with collage, journaling and cut-out words, little messages of hope and love kept showing up on the page and my art journal really became a true friend.

Today I'm going back in time as I share my very first art journal page from a year ago, and how I began my art journaling practice at a time when resistance was strong. Revisiting it brings out new stories and thoughts about these first steps...

Page after page, immerse yourself in Deborah's deeply layered Little Book of Whispers...

I'm a lover of books, and a year ago I started my first art journal, my "Book of Days"... I'm opening it for you today!

Get inspired by Sandy as she shares a glimpse of her journey of discovery and creativity, into the light...

When you see art you love from another artist, you are receiving their light, and when others see your art, it’s YOUR light they need to see!

There is such beautiful energy in the classroom of "Into the Light", the free workshop I'm offering this week to celebrate one year of teaching! Every new painting or photo posted in the group feels like a gift and I'm delighted to share some on the blog today!
