We lit the flame in the studio today. It was a reawakening of Soul Sessions. As we move from the expansiveness of a long hot summer to winters darkness, it’s a perfect time to turn inward. These are the stages of my painting. It comes on the heels of some personal awakenings about life, loss and where I have been in my life. It comes as I complete a 7 year cycle of grief and loss. What is revealing itself through writing, art and my dreams, feels like a deeper understanding of where I have “been.” I am not sure where this piece will land, but I am clear it’s not complete. I enjoyed the deep creative meditation and listening to what was being asked of me and responding without judgement. It’s a dance we do with the “canvas,” a dialogue of the heart and senses. Thank you to those who joined me today. It was an honor to flow with you in living color and to share our hearts in community. #sherigaynor #creativeawakeningsinternational https://www.instagram.com/p/BqWOlOxDY0g/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lmdnob5jp2wh

Good new! Sunday is out of her soft boots and her hooves are on the ground for the first time in over a week! Thank you to my team@of healers for supporting us. Thank you to my guy for talking to me and letting me know to trust mySELF! Feeling very grateful. I pray she’s still okay in the morning! #sherigaynor #creativeawakeningsinternational https://www.instagram.com/p/BnXaeIdnHSb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1x2v9wxhxeu68

I’m really enjoying creating mini-paintings in my journal. Wild and free ranch. #sherigaynor #creativeawakeningsinternational https://www.instagram.com/p/BnHL1ppHcrp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14cs9ckb5n8qw

Expressive Art in action All summer as I’ve walked Blue on different parts of the bike path, I’ve come across these rocks each with a different message. The others have been light hearted. Today I found these in a place closer to my home and they feel more intense than the others. They have been grouped in the Instagram layout but they were not together in actuality. The rocks are always carefully placed in places along the path and you have to stumble upon them. If you are out there and you need support, please know you are not alone. #sherigaynor #creativeawakeningsinternational https://www.instagram.com/p/BnGp_84nC64/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18a44tttc2e8r

Saturday with Sunday. It was time for her first summer bath. More like OUR first summer bath. By the time it was all over I smelled just as good as she did and was just about as wet! #sherigaynor https://www.instagram.com/p/BmWyW87HAgD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vb3ttndvkieb

For Debi. You were powerful beyond words. You choose this moon to cross. Of course you did. May you paint angels in the clouds and gallop freely into the sunrise.

My piece from today’s Art, Healing and Hope class at The Art Base. It was my first time through the area since the fire. The word miracle does not quite cover it. I was reminded of the fire line that saved my house in 2002 here In Glenwood. It’s a literal stripe, scorched earth and greenery. Thank you to the men and women who saved our towns. Thank you to all who came together today to share your feelings through imagery. Thank you to The Art Base for offering me the opportunity to bring this monthly program to your our community. Creativity moves trauma up, out and through! Art heals. #creativeawakeningsinternational #theartbase
