We got to meet new people and people were excited about the studio and what happens in the studio. A local fisherman won one of my fish that I make from palm trees and I got invited to a fish fry!! Yahoo.

I just returned home from the first stages of shopping for wine  and napkins and plates and chips for the studio warming party at Artful Dreamers Studio. I will shop more later in the week. I am getting very excited. We are going to have music and dancing and raffles and prizes and some little surprises!!! I am still thinking of a nice little craft if anyone feels inspired to create.See you on Thursday.

I thoroughly enjoyed my last training session with my fellow trainees. We had a great time. We had a free night one evening and  we played a game of charades which was outstanding and we could not stop laughing… My fellow teachers are awesome and so much fun.  The lightening round was the best.
I continue to be amazed at the Intuitive Painting Process. I learn more about myself every time I paint. I am stepping into the leadership role with more confidence.
We each presented a movement session and I chose the Cha Cha Slide. It was so much fun. We all laughed and danced and laughed some more.  Then I  had a free dance session so everyone could feel the difference between instructed dance and free movement. We all  had a different opinion. Choices are good! I spoke about the  FREEDOM in Artful Dreamers Studio.I believe freedom encourages creativity. Creativity feeds us..Graduation was amazing. The candles were lit and we were honored by Chris, our teacher. A Goddess celebration it was.  We were giving  our graduation certificates that say I am now a Master Facilitator of Intuitive Painting and Expressive Arts. Wha hoo. The  ten months I studied with this program has been life changing for me.

I am off to California with my Wild Heart Teachers  Friends for our last training session together.It has been a wild ride!  Painting , laughing, crying,  processing ,planning, dancing, moving, getting lost in San Francisco ,supporting each other and loving one another for who we truly are.
What a gift!
I am hoping to collaborate with my Wild Heart friends and create some new workshops in the future. We have spoken about a week long workshop in Turkey or Greece, and even Savannah, Georgia.
I have been asked to participate in a Women’s Workshop in Uruguay next February. So many possibilities to bring  this wonderful meaningful work to  many more people. If you are reading this post I hope you will consider attending a class. It is truly a very deep magical experience. See you soon.

Blogging is a very new and has been a scary experience for me~ so I have put it off  until now. I am learning and growing since I opened the studio… So many lessons. Constant Contact newsletters, websites etc. are a little daunting for me. I am very grateful to have  fantastic support from my patient and knowledgeable son and lots of great help with my writing from my sweet friend Denise… Thank goodness for their help. I am very GRATEFUL!
So with all that said I want to announce that this weekend at the Artful Dreamers Studio we have an exciting event: SWEET SIXTEEN PAINTING PARTY for Helena. We will have 11 girls experiencing the freedom of painting. I know they will have lots of fun. Stay tuned please.
