Making
art—giving form to the images that arise in our mind's eye, our dreams, and
our everyday lives—is a form of spiritual practice through which knowledge of
ourselves can ripen into wisdom. This book offers encouragement for everyone to
explore art making in this spirit of self-discovery—plus practical
instructions on material, methods, and activities such as ways to:


  • Discover
    a personal myth or story
  • Recognize
    patterns and themes in one's life
  • Identify
    and release painful memories
  • Combine
    journaling and image making
  • Practice
    the ancient skill of active imagination
  • Connect
    with others through sharing one's art works

Interwoven
with this guidance is the intimate story of the author's own journey as a
student, art therapist, teacher, wife, mother, and artist—and, most of all, as
a woman who discovered a profound and healing connection with her soul through
making art.
