Results from my first art class

I’ve been so focused on marketing our original music, that you may have forgotten that I’m working on my 5th book–I forget much of the time too! I’m still researching for the book with no release date in mind yet (though I am speaking with a book publisher this week). As well, my daughter got me out of the house last night to take an art class. If you would rather listen instead of read, play the audio (and there’s a few minutes of BONUS info on the audio this time too!):

Art class

It couldn’t have been a better subject than a Highland cow or Hairy Coo (as they are called in Scotland). Having seen Hairy Coo in Scotland (in 2019) I thought I’d do better on this. I think my daughter’s version turned out much better than mine, not that it was a competition. She’s been working at the art studio for two years and has picked up a lot of great ideas, though I do believe she’s a natural at this (see the last picture from her Facebook post of us).

This is what I started with (my daughter does most all of the tracings for every class at the studio).
This was the model and what we were aiming to do. Our teacher, Jeanie, encouraged us to take a photo of the model so we could zoom in on our phones to see the details. That didn’t help me toward the end though as I didn’t add the green leaves and little dots of flowers on the coo’s head. I almost forgot the white dots on the butterfly and the blue in the coo’s eyes too! Ha!
Almost done. I added the blue to the eyes but had not added the white dots to the butterfly yet.
I think my Hairy Coo looks great at home on the new white bedside table I got in from Etsy.

I really enjoyed painting, but I will say, that I observed us during the class, and aside from a little, “What did she say we do now?” and the like, my daughter and I were very focused on our art pieces. Others in the class were talking, laughing, and drinking (yes, it was a bring-your-own wine event), and while we were enjoying ourselves, I only got down about half of my cup of wine spritzer. I saw myself as being very serious and diligent in my ‘work.’

My daughter and I back home with our paintings. Richard took our picture.

Yours in expanding, revolving, spiraling consciousness,

To our better health, ease, and sustaining lives of JOY!

What I am known for

Be the best version of who you want to be–because if you’re reading my words your soul is probably beckoning you to align with it and live up to your highest ideals. Not perfect because who is perfect? Most stagnate or ‘get stuck’ while on their way to being whatever they think perfection is. Making progress is enough. Carrying your Karma lightly is enough. Be kind to yourself while living responsibly. Who you ARE affects us ALL. We Are All Connected.

Energy/Omniscience (Omnism) governs ALL. Omniscience knows ALL. Omniscience is always with you. You are never alone.

My online Zoom video course, Integrating the Spirals is more timely now than ever because I know people are suffering. (Let me know if you’re interested in working through the Integrating the Spirals course.)

As an empath I want to help ease suffering and raise our vibration to offer hope. I want to uplift others and expand our collective consciousness. I teach breath work and meditation so we appreciate the value of Detachment. We till our inner soil with our breath to calm the amygdala and institute peace. Meditation is an easy way to Connect us with spirit, higher selves, Omniscience God, and receive non-programmed personal guidance.

Women, Wine, and Wellness

Women, Wine, and Wellness Brevard

I joined the local chapter of Women, Wine, and Wellness in Cocoa, Florida to launch my new business, on October 7, 2019!

I attended last month’s event as a spectator and so enjoyed it, that I wanted to attend again anyway. So happens that the timing was perfect for me to grab a vendor table and announce my new mind, body, spirit, soul-aligned business!

Lauren Thew and Kali Bernardo have given me much business and entrepreneurial advice. And I am in awe of how elegantly they run this chapter. Kudos, ladies! ❤️🦋🌀

From helping me know all the things I needed to have put in place like:

  1. Clarity of offering (longer version of an elevator speech)
  2. Discussion about rates and fees
  3. Discussion about in-home or virtual
  4. Practice embodying it (by repeating it verbally in front of a mirror and recording myself)
  5. Printed materials: Sign in sheet, flyer, coupon,
  6. Welcome kit with accountability and engagement agreements/ session information
  7. Disclaimers, how to accept payment, pay plans, and more!

My new business

Here’s my introduction on their Facebook business page:

Here we go!

I’m so excited to be introducing my new brand at our upcoming event, and I plan to have a vendor table at each of the upcoming monthly events!

Woo-hoo!

Girl power! Hahahaha 😉🤣 Yes!

And I’ll be inviting folks to my next meeting too!

UPDATE: The business launch was a lovely success! I made several new friends, contacts for tech work, and a new preferred customer! Yay! I am having fun thinking of all the brainstorming and stuff we’ll be doing together!
