Art Is a Way of Knowing

$19.95

Description

Making art–giving form to the images that arise in our mind’s eye, our dreams, and our everyday lives–is a form of spiritual practice through which knowledge of ourselves can ripen into wisdom. This book offers encouragement for everyone to explore art making in this spirit of self-discovery–plus practical instructions on material, methods, and activities such as ways to:
– Discover a personal myth or story
– Recognize patterns and themes in one’s life
– Identify and release painful memories
– Combine journaling and image making
– Practice the ancient skill of active imagination
– Connect with others through sharing one’s art works

Interwoven with this guidance is the intimate story of the author’s own journey as a student, art therapist, teacher, wife, mother, and artist–and, most of all, as a woman who discovered a profound and healing connection with her soul through making art.
