Meet Your Guide

 

Hello and welcome to The Art Process! From Kathy, your guide…

I’m a visual artist, creativity coach and lover of nature and kindness! I believe deeply that creativity has the power to inspire, heal and transform our lives and create a sense of enormous wellbeing. EVERYONE has an innate desire to be creative, it is sadly often squelched in our early years and here I come in…I’m passionate about designing inspiring art workshops and retreats for anyone interested in exploring their personal and professional life through creativity.My goal is to inspire, encourage, and facilitate the art process for anyone with or without art experience.

Watch: The Art Process Unfold for TV viewers

Interview with the enthusiastic Laila Muhammad of NBC California Live. With zero experience, she opened herself up to the meditative and liberating experience of The Art Process!

How inspiring to watch an NBC Ca Live interviewer with ZERO art experience lose herself in this guided abstract mixed media art experience. Mixed Media (including  painting, collage, drawing, printing and found objects) encourages freedom of expression which is central to The Art Process.  Individuals can work through creative blocks and teams can address issues in the work environment such a burnout and low morale.

 As a participant, you are encouraged to remain mindful during each stage of the creative process, avoiding predicting the outcome.

 The Art Process is a proven method that helps beginners who yearn to express themselves unleash their creativity!
