Pain is universal. As human beings, we will all experience pain in our lifetimes. But we get to choose how to relate to our pain. When we let it isolate us, building fear and shame, it only compounds and we often find ourselves compulsively seeking relief from the very things that are killing us. Our true selves and our capability to achieve true union with the world, our spiritual selves and others gets buried under a mind and body enslaved by its suffering.
There is another path. When we find the courage to connect and share our story with ours, we find that we are not alone in our suffering. We find forgiveness, acceptance, healing and peace. We realize the lies we have made up about ourselves to ourselves in response to the things that have happened to us have kept us from seeing our inherent value. Fear and shame melt away, as do the walls they have created. We find ourselves free to discover who we authentically are, and begin to live a life in connection and love, instead of isolation and fear.
We believe that art is the gateway to the soul. When a person takes a moment to connect with themselves and paint, the images they create capture both their conscious and unconscious mind. In turn, these images evoke powerful feelings in others as we all can relate to the experience of being human.
