SoulCollage card by L. West
Fabulous and Fun for Fall!
I hope you have had a wonderful summer despite the weeks of smoke. It was hard on my usual outdoor activities, but it did keep me working in my studio on NEW class ideas to bring to you. I also spent a reflective week teaching Zentangle at a retreat. Together with three old friends, we led a week of personal exploration for a small group of older adults. It was a good challenge for me and quite enjoyable by all accounts. It was great reminiscing with my friends and meeting new folks as well. I will remember my experience at The Centre at Naramata (https://www.naramatacentresociety.org/) for years to come.
So what have I been thinking about, you may wonder? Well to start off this fall season, I have decided to add one more hour to the Zentangle classes so we have more time together.
In addition, I am adding something new to my offerings. For a few years now, I have been a SoulCollage Facilitator and have been using SoulCollage for my own life`s path. I love how the use of collaged images spark the deepest parts of myself and allow these parts, that are often ignored. to speak and offer often wise and insightful guidance. We are often our own greatest teacher, and this is a gentle way to hear that teacher`s voice. I hope you will be intrigued enough to join me in learning how to make SoulCollage cards and understanding this fun process. If you click on the SoulCollage Tab you can find out more about this wonderfully creative process.
I will also be starting classes a bit later this year, as well. So beginning in early October, I am offering a Zentangle Beginner and Refresher class for those who are just starting out and also for those with experience who want a refresher or just to tangle in a group again.
Through the fall/winter we will explore Zentangle in other mediums which will include metal embossing, Christmas Ornaments, Zen-animal forms, Zendala, to name a few. As always, the classes are geared towards people with no experience to more experienced tanglers, so all are welcome.
And that`s not all! I have been making short Zentangle Videos and you can view them on my YouTube channel and click like if you like them and hit subscribe if you want to see them as soon as they are made.
Wishing you a clear sky for days to come, Loretta
