Does Meditation-Oriented Art Help You Heal?
|
About three years ago, then-owners of the Sunlight of the Spirit recovery center asked me to provide my Spirit Goddess figurines, hearts, and other small sculptures for their wonderful store at 2314 J Street in Sacramento. But ever since then, I wanted to create something that really fit in with the theme of recovery and renewal ... maybe something dealing with meditation, relaxation, focusing inward, etc. A couple of weeks ago, my muse told me exactly what to create: "Mirrors to the Soul." My blog describes more about this process and the result. I hope you love the pieces as much as I do.

Garden Nymph Found a New Home!
|
I met so many new art lovers at my last Open Studio Show in April. Many were Facebook "friends" who I had never before met. One, in particular, lived outside of Sacramento but came with friends to my studio. She fell in love with Garden Nymph, one of my metal kinetic sculptures which I had just finished painting with vivid oxide colors. I recently installed the sculpture in Debra's classy home.
