My mission in life is to help YOU find your Authentic Self. Let’s dig deep to excavate our Authentic Selves. We deserve to live Joyful, Creative and Purpose-filled Lives!!

 

I learned the power of putting words + images together nearly ten years ago. My world was falling apart in every way possible. We were facing foreclosure, had just shut down our business + someone very dear to me was deep in depression + barely holding on. I took a class from Brave Girl Melody Ross that quite literally changed my life. Never once did I consider myself an artist. I can’t draw + silly me thought in order to BE an artist, one had to draw. But Melody’s class assured me I WAS an artist + I quickly fell in love with art journaling. I became so passionate about it I started teaching classes both in person + on-line. Within a few years I was invited to teach at a Wounded Warrior Retreat that has grown into an 8 year relationship with them. Teaching men + women who have served our country has been one of the biggest blessings in my life. It’s truly remarkable to see what happens when they trust the process and just get to work.

Fast forward to today…I have written + taught, two-year long art journaling classes as well as dozens of other workshops to women from all over the world. Encouraging, Uplifting + Inspiring others is where my Heart is. I keep listening Bravely, doing what the Lord asks, ready to offer you classes that inspire self-love + Purpose, connecting with our Creator + Soul Writing.

WELCOME!

I am always thrilled to receive her happy mail, which features her unique cut-and-paste style, vibrant paintings, and strips of fun retro flair. Her journal prompts challenge me to slow down, reflect deeply, and consider how I want to grow and what I need to let go of in order to fulfill my destiny. -Dianne
