HI Jakki: I know a lot of us judge ourselves harshly and it’s so good to know I’ve been able to help with that. I will indeed be creating some bundles of classes soon. Stay tuned! XO

Will you be packaging them up like you did for the first set? I am finding comfort in working through those now that I have the time and life is not quite as overwhelming. Buying the set was most definitely a great investment and I’m so glad I did it.

Thank you for your classes, your welcoming, non-judgmental embrace is, for me, so very important. I judge myself harshly at times and have little support at home; your classes validate the new-found joy I get in making art.

Oh Kimberly, I feel that deep well. I honor that feeling and your humanity and all you’ve done for so many. A good nurse is invaluable. I’m glad you are taking some time for your own healing. It means SO MUCH to me to know that I have helped. And only you know exactly what you need right now. I don’t know if I read you right, but sometimes a direct invitation to join can help give us the nudge to do something we want to do. If it feels right, I would love to have you at the live drawing today. You’ll find it here. Whatever you do with your day – I wish you many moments of light.
XO

HI Phyllis!

I’m so glad you’ll be joining in today! The supply list is the same every week and is listed on the event and also on the replay page. It’s always a micron drawing pen and watercolor paper cut in small pieces, about 3 x 4, and sometimes watercolors and a small round brush.

XO

I quit my nursing career after 42 years of working in the operating room as a surgery RN, because the care of dying patients was overwhelming-especially when so many people are denying its existence. I haven’t had the energy to take one of your free classes yet – but I am buoyed by your writing and your words have carried me… I thank you from the bottom of my heart. KNOW -that in this terrible time – you have truly helped at least this one human being. Kimberly Allen BSN,RN,CNOR

Is there a supply list provided somewhere, so I can be prepared when the drawing party starts?
Looking forward to slow dances with papayas.
Thank you very much.

Laurel – I SO appreciate your comment and kind words. It means so much to me to know that I’m making a difference right now in your well being overall, as in your art. Big hugs!

What a beautiful image, indeed. It’s so good to be able to “ground” this way. It’s elemental for me this year more than ever, and I can see many of us are on the same page. xo

I feel so grateful for this touch of nature.

But I want to let you know that the whole focus of SLOW art has become increasingly more important to me and the cadence and pace of your online sharing has been a real encouragement in that direction. THANK YOU for what you send out into ‘cyberspace’ with faith that it will reach many who need the encouragement and opportunity.

You are a blessing.
