Focused On Positive Art that Uplifts the Spirit!

January 26, 2010

I am focused on: “The Healing Power of Art!”

“Art has and continues to illuminate me, through creating, sharing; meeting with others to view it, inspire, affirm and celebrate. Creating art lights my path to soul revival. It has nurtured me and help me understand myself, therefore giving me the capacity to understand others.ย  It is the physical peace in my storms”

Manhattan Arts International’s “Celebrate The Healing Power of Art 2010” is based on the belief that Art is a natural force that promotes health and well-being for the creator as well as the viewer. Renee Phillips, Director of Manhattan Arts International, is organizing an online exhibition of positive art that uplifts the spirit, plus collaboration with others who share this belief. Interviews and articles reflect the contributions of Art & Healing leaders and causes.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog and for your comments!

    Yes, art definitely has healing powers. I’ll have to check out that site.

    Funny, you post a pic of your sweet daughter, and she gets on you for it. I’m sure my son won’t be thrilled that I posted that drawing of him!
