It can be really great to pull out your art journal/Journal and express what comes up for you either with images and colour, with words or with both. Check out the weekly and monthly videos to help you spend more time in your art journal.

Welcome to the Episode 241 of the Podcast and the Arts and Wellness Cafe. In today's episode we talk about checking in with ourselves and how we are feeling. It is quite easy to forget about yourself and rush from one activity to the next without taking a breath. So Pause.....

We focus each week on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being. looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and take some time for yourself. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights.

In today's episode of Inspirational Shorts I will be sharing one of my poems.

The Word for today is delighted. Think about those things that delight, what shape or form do they take. I am always delighted when I go into an art supply store lol, what nuggets of wisdom did you take away from the experiences that you have when you think about your creativity..

Think about the changes you would like in your own life and the step or steps you would like to take. Take out your art journal and be creative, use colour, texture, whatever you feel inspired to use.


I love to hearing from listeners and you can connect with me on a number of platforms

A great way to make the most of these recordings is to check out the accompanying blogpost and have a journal or art journal handy, so that you can either make notes or create something from what inspires you.

Welcome to Arts and Wellness Episode 233. Check out the video where you will see how I use the fabric scraps in the art journal, making use of the texture and colour that comes from the material.

Taking time to create enables you to focus on you and work on areas of your life that need some thought. It is a great stress reliever as well. There are many ways in which you can take part in the arts from participating, watching someone create or looking at the finished art in a gallery setting.

Check out the video HERE where you get a glimpse in the studio and we work on an art journal with fabric scraps

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being. I will be talking with artists, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights. I will be looking at the nuggets that the artists share and see how we can apply it in some way to our own lives, what ever your interests.

In today's episode of Inspirational Shorts we read a poem written by Merle Collins - You can check out some of the other poems that she has written HERE

Merle Collins (born 29 September 1950 in Aruba) is a distinguished Grenadian poet and short story writer. You can check out some of her books HERE Her first collection of poetry, Because the Dawn Breaks, was published by Karia Press in London in 1985, at which time Collins was a member of African Dawn, a performance group combining poetry, mime, and African music.

The Word for today is Enthusiastic - think of the things that you currently doing and the enthusiasm for them. What activities create more enthusiasm and why and what nuggets of wisdom do you take away from the experience.

Think about the changes you would like in your own life and the step or steps you would like to take. Take out your art journal and be creative, use colour, texture, whatever you feel inspired to use.

The Word for today is Helpful, and think of a time where you gave or needed help and what the outcome was, what nuggets of wisdom did you take away from the experience.

Think about the changes you would like in your own life and the step or steps you would like to take. Take out your art journal and be creative, use colour, texture, whatever you feel inspired to use.


I love to hearing from listeners and you can connect with me on a number of platforms

Welcome to today's Podcast - Episode 208, to give an insight for the weekends. The word for today is Optimistic - What does the word mean to you in relation to your creative practice, take some time and maybe do some work in your journal as you think over the word.

This will also be available on video as well on my YouTube Channel HERE These Friday podcasts will be typically under 10 minutes where possible. Products mentioned will be ones that I have brought and used myself (if it is a sponsored item it will be stated clearly). In today's episode I review Rowney Pastels. If you would like a longer review of a particular product then leave a comment on my YouTube comments section.

The best way to utilize these weekly 'Friday Shorts' is to spend time meditating on the words and allowing them to permeate your inner consciousness, check out the supply/tool or book and get creative!

Think about the changes you would like in your own life and the step or steps you would like to take. Take out your art journal and be creative, use colour, texture, whatever you feel inspired to use.

Welcome to today's Podcast, to give an insight for the weekends. The word for today is Perceptive. What does the word mean to you in relation to your creative practice, take some time and maybe do some work in your journal as you think over the word.

This will also be available on video as well on my YouTube Channel HERE These Friday podcasts will be typically under 10 minutes where possible. Products mentioned will be ones that I have brought and used myself (if it is a sponsored item it will be stated clearly). In today's episode I review Nouvel Carre Pastels. If you would like a longer review of a particular product then leave a comment on my YouTube comments section.

The best way to utilize these weekly 'Friday Shorts' is to spend time meditating on the words and allowing them to permeate your inner consciousness, check out the supply/tool or book and get creative!

Think about the changes you would like in your own life and the step or steps you would like to take. Take out your art journal and be creative, use colour, texture, whatever you feel inspired to use.

Welcome to Season 2 of Creating in Faith

Welcome to Episode 186, the word for today is Tender. How are you treating yourself, with tenderness? or not? We have to be reminded to look after ourselves sometimes and speak love into our day to day activities. It can be easy to brush yourself off as being too ' xxxxx' what ever you want to add when you should be speaking something loving about yourself. When was the last time you showed yourself some tenderness?

Creating In Faith Encouraging Recordings are to bless and inspire you to be the best of yourself. It can be really great to pull out your art journal/Journal and express what comes up for you either with images and colour, with words or with both. Check out the weekly and monthly videos to help you spend more time in your art journal.

You can get additional information by showing up on my blog, you can see the show notes HERE

If you would like to see some behind the scenes, images and additional tips HERE

You will find the 2 art journal videos available to consume at your leisure - the Making of the art journal for the month and an art journal page process - Check these out HERE

Welcome to Episode 185

Welcome to today's Podcast, to give an insight for the weekends, We are into season 2 of the Friday podcast and I am going to be adding a bit extra for you. Every Friday you will get your word for the day and you will also get information about a product/supply or book that inspires. This will also be available on video as well on my YouTube Channel HERE These Friday podcasts will be typically under 10 minutes where possible. Products mentioned will be ones that I have brought and used myself (if it is a sponsored item it will be stated clearly). In today's episode I review Decoart Misters that also come as Shimmer Misters If you would like a longer review of a particular product then leave a comment on my YouTube comments section.

Each Friday I share with you an insight or revelation and I hope that It will bless you as it blesses me. Today the word is - Discernment

The best way to utilize these weekly 'Friday Shorts' is to spend time meditating on the words and allowing them to permeate your inner consciousness, check out the supply/tool or book and get creative!

Think about the changes you would like in your own life and the step or steps you would like to take. Take out your art journal and be creative, use colour, texture, whatever you feel inspired to use.

I love to hearing from listeners and you can connect with me on a number of platforms

A great way to make the most of these recordings is to check out the accompanying blogpost and have a journal or art journal handy, so that you can either make notes or create something from what inspires you.

You can check me out on the following platforms,

Welcome to Episode 170 of the Podcast and Fridays Inspiration post to get you set for the weekend and the week ahead. Today the title is Knowledge.

The best way to utilize these weekly 'Friday Shorts' is to spend time meditating on the words and allowing them to permeate your inner consciousness.

Think about the changes you would like in your own life and the step or steps you would like to take. Take out your art journal and be creative, use colour, texture, whatever you feel inspired to use.

I love to hearing from listeners and you can connect with me on a number of platforms

Welcome to the Episode 169 of the Podcast and the Arts and Wellness Wednesdays.

With the Christmas season approaching you have to make sure that you spend some quality time on yourself and get your stuff together so that you can hit 2020 with all you have. Take the time to start now rather than waiting until 1st January and get yourself into gear by working on the things that matter to you.

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being. I will be talking with artists, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights. I will be looking at the nuggets that the artists share and see how we can apply it in some way to our own lives, what ever your interests.

Welcome to the Episode 162. Today's word is Change and Reflection and is the last in this series of Creating in Faith. I decided to change up the format of the Creating in Faith episodes to include more focus on working in your Art Journal and I will be creating weekly videos to give you some hints and tips for working in your art journal and spending the creative time on yourself, looking at ways in which you express and the positive impact that art and creativity has on your health and well-being.

What to expect in Season 2 -

  • Each month you will get a short video on making an art journal using the supplies and materials that you have around you - this pushes you to be resourceful, to use those supplies that you said were for special, and start using them on yourself. It can also get you completing projects that you have around you (I have a few half finished art journals laying around), use recycled materials - there are so many creative ways in which you can incorporate recycled materials. Available on my Patreon Blog
  • Each month you have an overall word to ponder.
  • Podcast Episode with a word for the week
  • Weekly art journal page play - you can incorporate the weekly word in your journal. The emphasis is on thinking and caring about how you feel, identifying needs and possible systems that you need to put in place for your own journey. There will be hints for working in your art journal. Available on my Patreon Blog

Welcome to episode 142 and Arts and Wellness Wednesdays

Art is for all and everyone should be able to have access to some kind of creative activity. In this episode I share a review of a book called Art Saves. I did many moons ago talk about this on my blog, but this is from a fresh perspective.

I hope that you are able to check out the book which you can get on amazon as a paper back or as a kindle copy, though art books always feel better when you can hold them.

Welcome to Episode 141. Today's word is Joy

I have always been a half full type of girl and tried to go into every situation trying to look at the positives that can be seen, and this I guess calls for a particular state of mind, but I think you also have to make a decision with the way you choose to see things.

Creating In Faith Encouraging Recordings are to bless and inspire you to be the best of yourself. It can be really great to pull out your art journal/Journal and express what comes up for you either with images and colour, with words or with both.

Welcome to Episode 138. Today's word is Restore

When I think of restoration I often think of those large works of art having being damaged through age and the passing of time. Methodically the painting is sectioned off and the original paint and chemicals analysed and compared matching the type of paint that was used all those centuries ago....

Creating In Faith Encouraging Recordings are to bless and inspire you to be the best of yourself. It can be really great to pull out your art journal/Journal and express what comes up for you either with images and colour, with words or with both.

Welcome to Episode 135. Today's word is Strength

Physical strength is something that we all possess to varying degrees and we can build upon it through training and exercise. Inner strength is something far different built up from the trials we have been through and calls on reserves from a place that at times can be tested to the limit,....

Creating In Faith Encouraging Recordings are to bless and inspire you to be the best of yourself. It can be really great to pull out your art journal/Journal and express what comes up for you either with images and colour, with words or with both.

Welcome to the Episode 133 of the Podcast and the Arts and Wellness Wednesdays.

In Todays Episode I will be talking about the sculpture Angel Watches Over Me which reminds us that we are never alone in our walk, we just have to have the courage to step out and not worry about what other people may say or think. I will also be sharing short interview that I did with Artist Kia Redman - Video comes out on Friday YouTube.

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being. I will be talking with artists, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights. I will be looking at the nuggets that the artists share and see how we can apply it in some way to our own lives, what ever your interests.

Welcome to Episode 132. Today's word is Water

Water is something that none of us can do without. Our bodies are made up of around 75% and as well as hydrating internally, we need to hydrate externally as well. It can be comforting to soak in after a hard days work and also refreshing drink.

Creating In Faith Encouraging Recordings are to bless and inspire you to be the best of yourself. It can be really great to pull out your art journal/Journal and express what comes up for you either with images and colour, with words or with both.

Welcome to the Episode 124 of the Podcast and the Arts and Wellness Wednesdays.

Today I am giving you tips on working with your art journal. and ways in which you can get over the initial fear of working in a book with loads of blank spaces, and get over it you will. Art Journals can also be used where words are hard to find or you want to express yourself in texture, colour, or what ever else you decide to create with in your art journal. If you give it a try you will soon be making your own designs, or even using those ones that you brought that seem so precious on yourself.

Check out some of the videos that I have created to help you with backgrounds HERE and also looking at a series of art journals I created HERE

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being. I will be talking with artists, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights.

Welcome to Episode 123. Today's word is Revelation

We can constantly be fighting to change how we think about ourselves and then out of the blue some random person says something and that opens a door up to our understanding.

Creating In Faith Encouraging Recordings are to bless and inspire you to be the best of yourself. It can be really great to pull out your art journal/Journal and express what comes up for you either with images and colour, with words or with both.

Welcome to Episode 122 This weeks post for Inspirational Shorts is entitled Freedom. What does that word mean to you?

Where there is love there is hope, there is always a way, what you have to decide is whether you have allowed yourself to be free to look at your situation and see whether your current state of being is meant to be. Sometimes the only one stopping us from stepping out is ourselves, what have you been holding yourself back from?

I thought I would give you an insight for the weekends, and prepare you for Mondays. These Friday podcasts will be typically under 3 minutes, and just a pit stop.

Each Friday I share with you an insight or revelation and I hope that It will bless you as it blesses me. Today it is to encourage you to go out and do some exercise, in whatever way you want to do it.

A great way to make the most of these recordings is to have a journal or art journal handy, so that you can either make notes or create something from what inspires you.

Welcome to Episode 121 in which I am sharing the interview that I did with Rochelle Burke - The Bajan Strokes Survivor earlier this year.

Rochelle talks about her challenges, her work in trying to get the voices of stroke survivors heard. She provides a platform where she talks about her journey and the very practical things that those who have no experience need to hear about so they can understand the tools they need to be more supportive. Rochelle has a YouTube Channel and a Podcast where she posts regularly. Follow the links on her site, and support the work that she is doing.

The Exhibition - Season of Emancipation is at the St George Parish Church

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being.

Welcome to today's episode 118, Arts and Wellness Wednesdays. Today I will be reviewing a book which is a really great resource if you are caring for someone living with Dementia, or in a care home or day care setting and want to develop a series of creative activities. The book is called Chocolate Rain

The book is filled with some really great tips and ideas, and gets you thinking about the things you are doing and how you can be more mindful with someone who may be at varying stages of the disease. The arts have always played a key role in impacting on healthcare situations in the home or in a care setting, and there are a variety of organisations that work with artists from a variety of disciplines to deliver sessions - from the arts to music, dance, drama and more.

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being. I will be talking with artists, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights. I will be looking at the nuggets that the artists share and see how we can apply it in some way to our own lives, what ever your interests.

Welcome to today's Episode - 117 I still look at the numbers and am amazed at how you can have an idea and see it grow over time, it is a very fulfilling feeling and really great to look back at the growth.

How are you feeding yourself? If you drive you have to have your car serviced and maintained to ensure that it will take you where you want to go. So with our bodies, in total we have to be mindful about how we are treating it as we expect that it is going to work for us.


Creating In Faith Encouraging Recordings are to bless and inspire you to be the best of yourself. It can be really great to pull out your art journal/Journal and express what comes up for you either with images and colour, with words or with both.

There are more podcast recordings available that you can listen to -

Welcome to today's slightly later episode 116 of the inspirational shorts.

The Inspirational Shorts will get you set for the week ahead. Today the topic is Diversity, what does that word mean to you.

The best way to utilize these weekly 'Friday Shorts' is to spend time meditating on the words and allowing them to permeate your inner consciousness.

Think about the changes you would like in your own life and the step or steps you would like to take. Take out your art journal and be creative, use colour, texture, whatever you feel inspired to use. Remember - You are precious, a gift, you touch the heart of many. So many miracles have come from you - through your smile your warmth, your heart. Keep believing, patience is the key that comes in many forms and you hold the key to unlock the many blessings that are waiting for you. Everything will come together for good at the right time!

I love to hearing from listeners and you can connect with me on a number of platform s

Welcome to Episode 113 and this week's Friday Podcast. I thought I would give you an insight for the weekends, and prepare you for Mondays.  The topic for today is Authenticity. These Friday podcasts will be typically under 3 minutes, and just a pit stop. 

Each Friday I share with you an insight or revelation and I hope that It will bless you as it blesses me. Today it is to encourage you to go out and do some exercise, in whatever way you want to do it.

A great way to make the most of these recordings is to check out the accompanying blogpost, or you can watch the video on YouTube, and have a journal or art journal handy, so that you can either make notes or create something from what inspires you. 

You can check me out on the following platforms,

Welcome to the Episode 112 of the Podcast and the Arts and Wellness Wednesdays.

In today's episode I look at ways in which we can get ourselves in and out of feeling overwhelmed by the things that we do. Our creative projects and challenges can make us feel stressed out if we have given ourselves too many things to do. I found that when I did the pastel challenge I underestimated how I would feel at the end, but because I knew the feeling I was able to better manage things. How do you manage your work flow?

The Good news for the podcast is that I am going to keep the format the same for the time being - I like having the 3 different episodes each week rather than everything all lumped into one. You have a choice to listen to just one or all three, you can also download the episodes for future listening. Let me know if there were any specific arts and health topics that you would like me to cover on the show, and I will add them to the list.

As the pastel challenge has come to an end I have created prints and other accessories that you can take a look at HERE

If you want to look at some ways in which to get back into your creative projects, I have posted two videos on my YouTube channel working in your Art Journal and working with leather - chamois and creating your own stencils - great fun.

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being. I will be talking with artists, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights. I will be looking at the nuggets that the artists share and see how we can apply it in some way to our own lives, what ever your interests.

Welcome to Fridays Inspiration post to get you set for the weekend and the week ahead.

Courage

Don’t allow what happened in the past to stop you from moving forward, things can change, situations can change, you can change. Change your mind, decide what you do want rather than focusing on what you don’t want.

You have to have courage, once you decide what it is that courage, determination and focus that will keep you going, alongside you taking a stand. It is not going to come over night, it is showing up for yourself each and every day until you achieve what you set out to do. You are not alone, each day millions of people around the world have decided that they too will take a step into living their best life and living with courage, Are you ready?

The best way to utilize these weekly 'Friday Shorts' is to spend time meditating on the words and allowing them to permeate your inner consciousness.

Welcome to the Episode 102 of the Realityarts Podcast and the Arts and Wellness Wednesdays.

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being, today I share an interview that I did on Urban Jazz Radio on the Money Mob Show with host Paul Muhammad. In the interview I spoke about the what I am doing in the arts as well as out in my garden, which provides me with a therapeutic haven. It is hard work but the visual rewards and the edible ones that you get when you grow your own is priceless. I have been growing a number of things that I then use in my art studio, such as the wood I harvest to use in Mixed media pieces, the fibers - namely sea island Cotton and banana fibers. You can join me on my Creative Gardener YouTube Channel and see what I have been up to.

I mention quite a few organisations that you can find out more information about - Slow Foods Barbados , Walkers Nature Reserve, Agrofest

Crop Over Events, AnimeKon Expo, ECCO - Barbados Sea Island Cotton, Artist Sheena Rose

Welcome to Episode 99 of the podcast. Today on Arts and Wellness Wednesday I will be talking about Dementia and recognizing the signs and symptoms and the use of creativity to help support those living with the disease and those who are caring for those living with the disease.

It follows on from my talk about the work I have done in the arts and health field in last weeks podcast, number 96 which you can listen to.

I have found that the arts can make a big impact on those who are living with Dementia and their carers and where ever you can put in place activities it is vital.

I have written about my experience being a carer and working through the maze of Dementia and Care on my blog and provided information and tips about some of the things that you can do. The services available will vary depending on where you live and funding The majority of carers have experienced the lack of funding for their loved ones, but there are resources that you can access and it is important that you find out as much as you can about the disease and what is available.

In the UK you can access Age UK and Alzheimer's Society.

In Barbados you can contact the Barbados Alzheimer's Association (BAA) - think about making a donation to the work that they do.. They offer regular training, keeping you updated and informed about the disease and resources available (Participation Program), hold yearly seminars with speakers coming in from all around the Caribbean and further afield and share a lot of important and relevant information, and the work is done by volunteers so they do need your support. You can give them a call on: Tel: 246-418-0741 or 824-3365 and see how you can help them further their work.

On Arts and Wellness Wednesdays I cover the way that art can impact on our health and well-being and encourage you to find a way to incorporate Art in what ever form you choose into your regular daily practice, so you can come to my YouTube channel and see art videos and tutorials, and be inspired and encouraged.

If you would like to get more creative but not sure of what to do sign up for two free 30 minute sessions where you can talk about the things that matter or you want to work through creatively. More information HERE

Please consider sharing this information, dementia effects the whole community and we need to be the bridge of support for those who are directly dealing with the disease, and look at the range of creative resources that we can use.

Welcome to the Episode 98 of the Realityarts Podcast. We are nearly at the end of June and in Barbados there are many Crop Over Celebrations and events taking place. You can find out more information about all the events HERE I will play the official Crop Over Jingle.

Today's talk is called 'Incomplete' what are the things that you have left unfinished that could be a blessing to someone else, that book that you wanted to write, the course you talked about doing? So many things we allow to drift that could be a blessing to not only ourselves but to others as well. Well, here is the reminder for you to take up where you left off, the promises you made to yourself you are going to honor them, not listen to the naysayers or any excuses, but you are going to GO FOR IT!! and then share what you are doing.

Welcome to Episode 96 and Arts and Wellness Wednesday. Today I am sharing about the work that I have been doing in the Arts and Health field. It all started for me when my mother began showing signs of Dementia and we had to put something in place to manage - I needed to find a way to cope through it all. I have found creativity to be a lifesaver and not only helped me cope with the ever increasing demands on my time, but also was a great tool for my mother to be able to express herself in different ways.

The more I got involved into the connection between art, creativity and health the more opportunities opened up to be able to talk about the work I was doing and people who were impacted.

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights. I will be looking at the nuggets that the artists share and see how we can apply it in some way to our own lives, what ever your interests.

In this Episode I speak to artist Aaron Hamilton at the Caribbean Fine Art Fair. Aaron is an artist and native of the island of Dominica. He enjoys creating images using a wide range of mediums, and his inspiration is found in his childhood home where the rivers and mountains with the variety of tints and shades of colours drive his thoughts; this is what compels his art. Aaron was one of the participating artists at CaFA

Welcome to the Episode 90 of the Podcast and the Arts and Wellness Wednesdays.

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being. I will be talking with artists, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights. I will be looking at the nuggets that the artists share and see how we can apply it in some way to our own lives, what ever your interests.

In this Episode I speak to artist Francks Deceus at the Caribbean Fine Art Fair. Born in Haiti Deceus and his family moved to Brooklyn, New York when he was 9 years old. His work incorporates many of the influences and aesthetic forms of the 40's and 50's visual artist like William Johnson and Jacob Lawrence. His modernist style combines figurative, abstract and layered elements and relies heavily on a simplification of form and function.

You can check him out on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/fdeceusart and his website - http://deceusart.com/

Creating In Faith Encouraging Recordings are to bless and inspire you to be the best of yourself. It can be really great to pull out your art journal/Journal and express what comes up for you either with images and colour, with words or with both.

In today's Episode I talk about Celebrations, how do you celebrate your accomplishments? And what ways do you find that you can keep yourself going? When we celebrate along the way we help ourselves to find that much needed momentum and you are able to look back at each point and see how far you have come.

Happy Monday, and Welcome to this week's Podcast.

Today I will be talking about Endurance and how that has shown up in my life and experiences. Often times when we think about the things that are worrying us we end up reminding ourselves of the lack, we have to try and change our perspective.

When we ask for a change of the situation we have to believe that we have received it and await the manifestation - then get on with our lives enjoying what we do have and feeling the joy. There is always something to feel joy about regardless how small.

A great way to make the most of these recordings is to check out the accompanying blogpost, or you can watch the video on YouTube, and have a journal or art journal handy, so that you can either make notes or create something from what inspires you. Let me know how you get on.

I would love to hear from you and you can connect with me on a number of platforms

Welcome to today's show, so wonderful to have you here.

Today the talk is on Faith. In what ways do you feel that you might have demonstrated it.

When we think of just the simple bodily functions that we take for granted we have faith that we will get up or the sun will rise and fall. What other things do you need to have a bit more faith for? I would love to hear from you, so feel free to get in touch on what ever platform you use most.

I am also celebrating having two of my sculptures in the exhibition called Resolutions which opened on Saturday 12th at the Argentina Embassy. The show will continue until 12th February. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2311284798890734&set=pcb.2311012785584602&type=3&theater

First off, I want to wish you a Happy New Year, blessings for 2019. I know it is going to be an amazing year.

Welcome to the 41st Episode, I am giving myself a pat on the back for coming this far. and I am looking forward to sharing with you some amazing content. I have quite a few plans that I would like to see come to fruition for 2019. I hope that you have started to make your plans for what you are going to be doing, how you can use your time to maximize the results you would like to see.

In this episode of Creating in Faith I look at the word 'Leap'. What does it mean to you. Sometimes we have to take steps that makes us feel vulnerable or insecure but you have to have the faith that you can do what you set out to do. I would love to hear your thoughts, leave a message or contact me on social media.

Welcome to today's Creating in Faith Episode, and the topic for today is Growth.

We can't ignore that it is also Christmas Eve and I am blown away that you chose to listen to the podcast while you navigate the work functions, and getting together with friends and loved ones. Take a moment to think about those who live alone, who are isolated, or don't have the luxury of having a roof over their head - but don't just think about it see what you could do to bring joy into the life of a stranger this year. There are many initiatives that are organised to give those who are homeless somewhere they can come and get a warm meal and some company, see if you can take part in something organised in your area and impact positively on the life of another in some way.

Today the topic is on growth and we all want to think that by the end of a year that we have done more than we did the previous year - reflect on your life over the past 12 months and see if that is the case for you. It is also an idea to see what you can put in place for the following 12 months, think of all the goals that you would like to achieve and take the steps to make something happen.

I would love to hear from you, to see how you are getting on and what has inspired you. Remember, if you are thinking of taking part in the Mixed Media Play Date online Course I will be giving away several bonuses when you use my link and up until tomorrow (25th) you can get 20% off the course by using the code PLAYDATE at the checkout - check it out Here -

Hi and welcome to this weeks podcast. I am in the process of starting a new series called Creating in Faith and it touches on a variety of things within your creative practice.

It calls for you to use art and develop your creative practice, every day, not sometimes but each and every day if it is only 5 minutes that you spend in your creative space touching your supplies, doing a quick sketch, but you have to find time for you.

My faith reminds me not to take my creative gifts for granted and I believe that our talents are to bless ourselves and others in the world. That song you might sing, the poem you write or expressing through dance, instrumental, photography and for me time making something or working in my garden all can bless someone somewhere in the world.

You will see from the October Bonus Challenge recordings how it all started and I hope it encourages you to start a challenge for yourself.

I will be sharing with you a word of encouragement each week and ideas for some creative play as well!

Also remember that I am teaching on the Mixed Media Play Date and I have bonuses for you when you click on my link, you can check them out here: https://mailchi.mp/a72360190dcb/mmpd2019-bonuses

It takes a bit of thought, but all things are possible.
