Intuitive Artist | Coach & Mentor | Mother of 3 | Housework Avoider | Silly Heart
I'm always in awe of artists, whether you call yourself one or not. Artists offer a piece of their heart every time they create something. Creating from the heart can be fun but sometimes difficult, so I wanted to create a space where artists can be themselves, have fun and bring more playfulness to art in a judgement free space.
My Big Artistic Block
My artistic block goes way back to being a very self-conscious kid, wanting to get every drawing perfect and being incredibly hard on myself in the process. I convinced myself I couldn't do it and stopped trying. In fact, the story I told myself about art became so strong that into adulthood, I would freeze at the thought of doing something ‘arty’. A blank canvas became my biggest fear.
My Creative Healing Journey
Reconnecting with play became such an important part of my process. As I built my self-esteem, I naturally became more able to ‘make mistakes’, try something new, challenge myself, take instruction and the big one – not take things so personally.
I could hear the calling of my innate creative confidence. I could see life in colours. With each step forward, I stepped inwards towards the joy in my heart.
Knowing that creativity is within changed how approached art, learned art and appreciated art.
I wanted to create courses and spaces that helped artists of all levels connect with their own innate, radiant artist.
A blank canvas is now pure possibility and potential!
