A Look Inside FEARLESS!

Applications Coming In!

We are so grateful that the FEARLESS Workshop is filling up! Applications are coming in, and we continue to respond to emails and phonecalls about it.  Don't hesitate to email with questions. 

The most popular question by far is:

Q: "Is this workshop appropriate for beginners?"

A: YES! You will feel right at home and usually workshops are attended by a short range of skill levels--beginners to intermediates.  We all learn much from one another.  So, come on!

We have faith that each attendee will be led to this special weekend!  God is good like that.

FRIENDSHIP

Isn't it amazing how a friendship can really empower you! I love the way ours is one of encouragement, sharing and enthusiasm centered on our love for God and the gift He has given us. It is such a powerful combination producing the most amazing energy that far exceeds anything we know on an individual basis.  What wonderful potential leading us on the most amazing journeys.

I hope we can inspire and give you fuel for your creative journey through this blog, that through our workshop we can share our knowledge, passion, and energy with you and lead you to the path of freedom from fear in your creativity:

Part of any friendship is accountability. We hope to humbly be accountable to you and to one another to guard our God given passions and treat our daily creative time sacred. We pray that this will encourage you to do the same.

Finally friendship is a joy and in our joy let’s remember, as the poet Rilke wrote, to love the questions along the way, not rush for the solutions but allow the process to fuel our passion, bring our full measure of sensitivity to the easel and finally ”be gentle to those left behind.”
