Course Description

Join Connie as she explores Deep Conversations with the soul and how this practice can transform your art to reflect the beauty inside.

Hidden deep in every artist is a reservoir of wisdom that can be accessed each time we come to our creative practice with intention and a relaxed mind. What if this connection — your Soul — is closer and easier to converse with than you think?

In Deep Conversations I share with you some of my favorite mixed-media tools and techniques that I rely upon for helping me connect, communicate, and care for with my own precious Soul.

Together we’ll begin this journey by relaxing our minds and bodies through creative play, simple breath work, and embracing the beauty that lies beneath our limitations and perceived failures as artists.

By the end of this course you will no longer look at mixed-media art making as something you simply do, but rather a deep conversation waiting to be had with your own beautiful, wise Soul.
