The Artist's Way

The Artist's Way is a book by Julia Cameron and I run sessions for people who are interested in exploring the book as a creative, self development process.

One of our chief needs as creative beings is support. Unfortunately, this can be hard to come by. Ideally we would be nurtured and encouraged first by our nuclear family and then by ever-widening circles of friends, teachers well-wishers." Julia Cameron.

It is with this idea of supporting one another as creative beings, and connecting with a similar interest, that I am offering sessions to explore The Artist's Way. While the Artist's Way title would tend to give the impression that the book is for people who do art. However, it isn't just that it is about our creative life - so whether you love to cook, sculpt, write, draw, do art, make music, sew - whatever your creative expression is, then this book is for you.

The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect,
but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity.
The creative mind plays with the objects it loves.
Carl Jung
(quote from The Artist's Way)
