To be perfectly honest, this project has given me more than I could’ve hoped for. Over the four years that it took to create, (avoidance, maybe?!?), I healed so many past traumas, many of which were beyond my own conscious awareness. I’m happy to say that I’m not the girl that started this project anymore.Continue reading “Inner Child Artist Oracle is prepared to go live! But does it do what I say it does?”

How Inner Child Artist Oracle Came To Be: The Progression of the Process is Sticky Sometimes
The deck started out small, and was meant for personal use only, but it transformed itself many times as I went along. It soon became huge and MESSY!!! And that is OK, as the process for creating it felt huge and messy. There was lots of scribbling and mistakes and I didn’t always like theContinue reading “How Inner Child Artist Oracle Came To Be: The Progression of the Process is Sticky Sometimes”
Heal Your Inner Child
Coming to Kickstarter February 15, 2023!
The Inner Child Artist Oracle Kickstarter is starting on Feb 10, 2023, Y’all!
It has taken me four years to complete this awesome deck, using my non-dominant hand! Talk about HARD, but so worth it. Why do inner child work? Well, because… “No one is coming to save you, but it is not because you are unloved. To the contrary: You are so revered, so adored, so magnificent,Continue reading “The Inner Child Artist Oracle Kickstarter is starting on Feb 10, 2023, Y’all!”
Inner Child Artist Oracle is Done, Diddly-Un!!!!

Dude, this is happening!
I have to finish editing 22 stories in the guidebook for Inner Child Artist Oracle. The stories are from my inner child’s perspective, and some of them are not easy to write, and even harder to read. We all have our stories. So this is me, wearing my heart on my sleeve, as I’m sharingContinue reading “Dude, this is happening!”

Inner Child Artist: WIP!
Are you happy? Were you happy as a child? Do you know how to be truly happy? 🥰 Emotions are intrinsic, and must be created from within. Happiness is something you become. It can’t be found in other people, in relationships, in travel, in work, or in luxury belongings… Happiness is something that you mustContinue reading “Inner Child Artist: WIP!”
Inner Child Artist
Y’all… I have been working on an oracle deck called Inner Child Artist since early 2018. I got the promo deck on the day my father passed. Needless to say, I had to put it down for a while until my heart could handle it again. I miss my dad so much! It’s hurts toContinue reading “Inner Child Artist”
Am I a witch?
Yes, my husband saved the dried herbs from the garden for my “spells.” Yes, my friend brought me potion bottles yesterday. Yes, I make candles that smell (and are named) like weed scents. Yes, I can capture your soul with my paintbrush. Yes, I have also been known to help your children hone their artisticContinue reading “Am I a witch?”
Astro Taking Over!
But why do I have an interest in astrology anyways? It is something about the stars. I love to think that our personalities are predetermined by the constellations. Much of what I’ve learned about my own natal chart has been so important in my discoveries of who I am. It has been a life-long process,Continue reading “Astro Taking Over!”
Inner Child Artist: The How’s and Why’s
These are my drawings in response to the cards in my Inner Child Artist deck. It’s hard to say which I prefer: the initial imagery or the elicited imagery… Inner Child Artist was created over the many YEARS I spent teaching elementary art. Much of the imagery is from art projects that I facilitated andContinue reading “Inner Child Artist: The How’s and Why’s”

What in the actual fuck is going on?
I have been absent. And I have been absent in more than just my website… I have been absent in my life in general. I must admit that losing my father has been the worst thing that’s ever happened to me. It threw my life into a tailspin. A tailspin? A tailspin implies that everythingContinue reading “What in the actual fuck is going on?”
