I recently pulled out my oil pastels, and had to remember how to use them! I was so happy creating, as you can view, that I took a fun creative journey developing this folk art bird. 
 

Mixed medias are oil pastels, acrylic paints, stamps and Fun! My hope is that you enjoy this free lesson and it encourages you to pick up a small canvas or paper and take a whimsical journey- there is no wrong road!

Making Dolls is Women's Magic

I've worked with indigenous shamans, been a student of the western mystery traditions, and received my M.A. in Transformative Arts & Consciousness. I've been an art consultant on the Rue Royal in New Orleans to Rodeo Drive in high-end Art Galleries.

My lifelong question  is

What Makes Art Sacred? 

WE DO!

I invite you to create big Magic with me!
