Exploring the qualities and energies of the Healer as a universal archetype is like embarking on a very long sea voyage. An odyssey that moves us past the edges of our oceans, through time and space, into a flickering cosmos of moving images where life, light and darkness swirl. Like spiral galaxies gathering all of […]
I am a hermit though and through. A long time fence sitter between introvert and extrovert, I love being alone. I also enjoy companionship and connection. Indeed I have many deep, delightful and fulfilling relationships. As a depth coach, mentor and teacher I am artfully engaged in guiding and working with individuals. Much of my […]
Do you remember, in the early 80’s, when the illustrator Mary Engelbreit created her art and declared this truth, “It is good to be Queen”? Her young ones had glowing round faces painted with bright colors and exuberant expressions, claiming power with paper crowns and mop handle scepters. This declaration of self-expression reminded many […]
Exploring the archetypal energies of the emerging self, held within the cycles and seasons of growth can be deeply explored though the medium of face and body masks. I was first exposed to hands on masking though Kaleo and Elise Durham Ching, teachers, healers, poet and artists who have written several powerful books on chi, creativity […]

A magnifying glass that allows us to get closer to something that we are looking at or working with. Art-making is at its core a language of the soul. Whether you decide to call […]
Years ago, I embarked on a life-changing journey to rediscover and claim myself. My first husband and I let go of our long marriage, my last chickens flew out of the nest and I gathered a few shreds of my tarnished brilliance back to me and journeyed deep into transforming my life. I wrote a […]
Bones and tendons, discs shifting, equilibrium compromised, my world came crashing down around me – I was forced to come to a halt. Burdened, over giving and controlling – I was the fierce mother who couldn’t let go. My body told me it was time to stop and the herniated disc told me of a deeper internal pain […]
Exploring the spectrum of self is a powerful reflection process that I have designed as a transformative art practice.
