POD #6: What do you do that no longer serves you? What do you do that no longer serves you? What are you getting out of doing it? Are you attached to that? What would it take for you to release it? And who would you be, if you released it? This prompt could not... Continue Reading →
We have an amazing opportunity in our community that allows people with no artistic ability to create their own painting. It is a guided process that takes you step by step, technique by technique for a single painting.
