What Is Expressive Art?

"Only in spontaneity can we be who we truly are." 

-John Mclaughlin

Why Is It So Important To Be Spontaneous?

 Expressive art is spontanous art - creation without pre-planning and it often points out psychological patterns we are unaware of. I use spontaneous expressive art to see "what comes out" and to get honest with myself. The more honest I am with myself the more deeply I can connect with other people.

Our souls speak to us in imagery and through symbolism in dreams, in our daily lives, in spontaneous art. This site will help you do your own inner work and will inspire you to find out what you are made of inside. Life is a process of creation and discovery. 

Collage is an Easy Way to Begin Creating Spontaneously

In Depth Collage Journalling Course

My main expressive art workshop offering is called Collage for Self-Discovery. Part 1 takes you deeply into a daily spontaneous art practice. Most of us do not allow much spontaneity in our lives and often life can feel dull and routine. It is easy however to surrender control and find out surprising things about yourself with spontaneous collage.

No previous art experience is needed. You will be amazed at how much your collages will express all the parts of yourself, both known and hidden from your conscious understanding.

Part 2 of Collage for Self-Discovery offers tools to help you move through the more the more shadowy parts of your soul and your psychology and make peace with them so that you can face the current challenges of your life.
