Inviting your Angels to walk with you – Intuitive Angel Workshop
Feel the gentle presence and blessings from your Angels
So excited about this upcoming workshop that I’ll be teaching at the studio! I’ve never really articulated why I want to teach this class or why it’s so important to me to share it with others. But talking with a dear friend about it the other day made me realize that the workshop is a way to share my way of reaching out to touch the presence of our Angels.
Our Angels are always there, beside us. But as humans we do doubt a lot and wonder a whole lot about if they are really there in the first place. By setting an intention and through gentle connection through a workshop such as this one, we are consciously becoming aware of their presence. You know how sometimes when you have something in mind, you start seeing and hearing it everywhere? It’s kind of like that – almost like an antennae being tuned. So by setting aside some sacred time to tune in to what our hearts want for the year and and asking our Angels for help with it, we are becoming aware of their presence in our lives and solidifying the path to our heart’s desire with their gentle help.
Come join me this Saturday! I can’t wait to see the Angels come alive on canvas. It is going to be such a gentle but empowering process for everyone present.

Summer Creative Camps at Sacred Spark Studios!
I’m so excited about the upcoming Summer Creative Camps (Magical Creatures and Magical Treasures) at my studio! This series of creative camps are for ages 7-12 and they were dreamed up because they combine 3 of my favorite things – stories, writing and art!
As a child, I was an avid reader of all kinds of books – I loved reading and my favorite kinds usually had an element of mystery or magic in them. Dragons, wizards, enchanted woods, talking animals and powerful, magical treasures and magical spells. Then I would spend just as much time drawing and telling my own stories with and through art.
As an artist and writer, my vision is to design creative classes and art camps that I know would encourage a child to explore both disciplines in a fun and creative environment. More than just a combination of art projects, techniques and writing prompts, I wanted to inspire children to tell their own stories and find ways to expand and explore their worlds on the page and through art. When children see how theirs ideas are translated into something tangible, it will empower them and give them a sense of their own abilities and gifts. In the process of exploring and bringing their ideas to life, they are developing real life skills in conceptual thinking, the creative process, story crafting and art making.
I’ve been prepping the content and materials for the workshops for the past few months but the inklings of these workshops and camps had their beginnings in a childhood filled with books and art. I am having so much fun putting it all together and will be giving updates on the prep process in the weeks to come. To sign your child up for the Magical Creatures and Treasures Creative Camps, please go here.
These journals are a dream! Great paper quality and thick enough for mixed media work and writing. Looking forward to presenting each child with one so that they can personalize it and make it their own!
Prepping some of the materials for camp! More to come!
“Flowers in the Mist” and “A Thousand Petaled Blessing”
I recently went into the studio just bursting to paint. The past few months had been filled with travel, festivities and family stuff. No time to paint, to create. Now that that was all behind us, the ordinary rhythm of work and school has brought some semblance of calm to our lives.
These huge canvases have been sitting in my studio for months, just waiting, calling to me.
I put on Groove Armada and Suede and get to work.
The joy of paint flowing, and colors dripping on canvas felt like my soul finally breathing again. It felt so good.
And here they are – two paintings from the corner of my world.
Flowers in the mist
a vision of rain,
on a misty mountain day,
flowers blooming, glistening, yet hidden,
like undiscovered treasures
half buried, almost discovered
what treasures of our souls
will we find if we look within?
A thousand petaled blessing
May your life bloom like a thousand petaled blessing
Fragrant with the sweetness of things coming full circle
May the petals of love fall gently on you,
Blessing you with swift, soft miracles
May tender goodness be with you
As many as the petals of a thousand petaled blessing
