I’m a writer who’s just published a memoir: I’ll Be There to Write the Story: a Mother-Daughter Journey Beyond Death. I’m also a potter who works out of a home-based studio with my husband.
I’m interested in Nature (Earth), Spirituality (Air), Clay Art (Fire), and writing (Ink). I do intuitive art, also called automatic drawing, spontaneous art and expressive art, and I find the process amazing. I write poetry and hang out with poets. I pay attention to synchronicities and believe that they help guide my life.
I am interested in stories about women connecting with loved ones on the Other Side. Some of my friends have seen fairies–and I believe them. People who can communicate with animals, I also enjoy.
I have been part of a women’s writing group that has been writing consistently every Monday for over ten years. I’ve studied various kinds of shamanism and find that it speaks to me about as well as anything.
GREAT JOB, Miss non-techie. I am most definitely impressed and also anxiously looking forward to the moment I gaze upon your book. I KNOW I’m going to love it!!
Debby, it worked! I finally figured out how to accept your comment. It is posted on the page. And here’s the reply. I think we’re in business!
Says here I can reply to you via email. That is good, because this kind of reply makes more sense to me than posting it on the site, which I just did. I don’t mind letting my ignorance hang out on my first post. So, thanks. Your comment did post. It just took me half the morning to understand the process. Blessings! Maria
Maria,
I am so blessed to have found your website. To have a name and understand the type of drawing ‘intuitive art, also called automatic drawing, spontaneous art and expressive art’ I have done, and continue to do. Thank you, Peace and Blessings to you, Lorenza Angelo
Lorenza, thanks for your comment. I’m glad you found my site too! I certainly understand your feeling of connectedness with someone else who is doing what you do. Like you I was wondering for years what this was and where it was coming from. Then I met someone in a writing workshop who did intuitive art and I didn’t feel alone any more. I just just this past weekend took a 4-hour workshop in Santa Fe with Deborah Koff-Chapin who “invented” Touch Drawing. Her art is definitely a form of this expressive art. If you haven’t already found her, go to http://www.touchdrawing.com. In her Facilitator’s Workbook, there is an extensive bibliography of books and resources and people who do this kind of thing. Her website is a good place to start.
