Extended Seminars:

Painting through Traditional Archetypes as Creative Discipline & Inspiration for Authentic Power

Thursday Evenings 6-9pm OR Friday Mornings 10am-1pm.

TRANSFORMATIONAL PAINTING is a practice not in the sense of repeating a skill over and over until it is mastered, but as a spiritual exercise that develops alignment to principles of innate wholeness. We use the format of painting to experience the development of muscles which support being aware of beingness in the present. In PAINTING into ARCHTYPES, we use fundamental energy constellations that are present in our lives. These archetypes are key to the Western Mystery Schools of the Tarot and Qabalah as well as Transpersonal and Depth Psychology of Carl Jung, James Hillman and others. As we explore through process painting on an experiential level we make conscious the forces which have served in a default position. This kind of inner creative work takes no experience in the visual arts, but demands a willingness to release old stories and dramas that keep us in separation. Here is the schedule for the next few months: $225 on a monthly basis and $200 a month for a four month commitment.
