CreativeTherapy Catalyst 27

This week’s CreativeTherapy Catalyst #27 is up! Head over to CreativeTherapy to see what the rest of the design team created! Here’s mine: I think we all have a catalog of painful memories. They can either define us or we can define them. For me, they helped to create the person I am today, but [...]

Art in the studio

I realized that I haven’t been updating much other than with the CreativeTherapy catalyst responses. But I’ve been doing so much more. For the past few weeks, I’ve been doing lots of journaling and collage “just because”. I often do this just because I have a lot on my mind that I just need to [...]

CreativeTherapy Catalyst 26

This week’s CreativeTherapy catalyst is “What is one talent/ability you wish you had?” Though I believe that most talents/abilities can be gained through nurturing them and practicing them, there are some, like singing and dancing, that probably require some sort of real gift. So, here is my response to the catalyst: If there was one [...]

CreativeTherapy Catalyst 22

Oh my goodness! All the excitement of Art Unraveled got me off schedule in publishing the CreativeTherapy catalyst for this week, so here it is: What is your greatest accomplishment? Here is my response: Biggest accomplishment? This was hard to choose. From a professional and educational standpoint, I have accomplished a lot in my 40 [...]

France Travel Journal – Final Installment

Finally, we have reached the final “chapter” of our trip to France. Grab your cup of coffee and a croissant and enjoy! From Aix in Provence, we had a two-hour drive to Nice. Dave and I were both looking forward to a shorter trip than we had the day before. I was quite tired and [...]

One more Paris Post

One more post about Paris. While there, I did take care to relax a lot between activities. It’s a walking city, so I was glad to have my cane. But I needed to be very mindful about my energy. And so I spent a lot of time in our hotel room. There was not much [...]

France Travel Journal, Part 3

Here is the third installment of the Paris part of our trip to France. Grab yourself a cup of coffee or tea and settle in, since it’s a marathon! But there are actual drawings this time, so art abounds! And we’re off… So, after we got rained on – again – and headed to our [...]

CreativeTherapy – Catalyst 19

Before I left for France, I made myself finish one more catalyst since I knew I would be exhausted upon our return and that I’d have my treatment soon, too. Well, I’m so glad I did, because it’s Sunday again! And Catalyst 19 is now up. It’s “What is your quirk/idiosyncrasy?” Click on the image [...]

French Travel Journal, Part 2

I’m still post-treatment and having all the side-effects because my body was already stressed from the travel. But I’m still around! here’s the second installment of our travel journal. So, where was I? Oh, yes, we were soaking wet in our red touristy ponchos at the Eiffel Tower… After the soaking wet fiasco at the [...]

CreativeTherapy – Catalyst 18

Bon Jour, mis amis! Sunday again! That means it’s time for CreativeTherapy! If this works as it’s supposed to, I’m currently bidding “Au revoir!” to France and I’m on my way back home to the States! I’m also probably exhausted, so I don’t know when I’ll be able to give you a “live” update. But, [...]
