Soulful heART Journaling Activity-
Description: Soulful heART Journaling activity. This workshop offers participants the opportunity to express heart and soul emotions with personal stories of their life using paint, mark making tools, stamps, stencils, and collage items. I believe journaling is therapeutic by taking time to just be still... giving yourself the GIFT of time... tapping into the moment of NOW... using paint, pencils, markers, etc. creates an amazing meditative flow which I call the "Portal of CREATIVITY". Participants will lose ALL sense of time and will be shocked when it's time to clean up.

Tree of Life Painting Activity-
Description: Tree of Life Painting activity. I believe trees are symbolic of the "nourishing powers of Mother Earth, a connection to our ancestors and the spirit world and a representation of the journey of spiritual growth". A TREE has branches that reach into the sky and roots that dig into the earth. I believe that TREES are symbols of LOVE. Painting a Tree of Life using the printmaking process using actual leaves found in nature may have the potential to change how we see ourselves, our planet, and perhaps even our own life purpose.
