Awaken Your Creative Spirit in 7 Days

I’m Kristen and I’m a multi-passionate artist and creativity guide that encourages you to be brave, love deeply and shine brightly. My artwork is full of joyful energy and possibility. My jewelry designs are free-spirited. I am inspired by the natural world and am an explorer of self expression. Would you believe me if I said you were creative? That you have everything you need inside of you to be the artist of your life. Art is an invitation to get to know yourself more fully. I’m passionate about guiding you to awaken your creative spirit, trust in your magic and transform your life.

Sketchbook Sunday. Radiate Love. 💕

This was a “soul scribble” sketch, you close your eyes scribble some lines and then see what you see. Like looking for shapes in the clouds. It’s a fun art practice for discovery and guidance.

Once an image appears draw it out, add color and look for the meaning in your message. This one was full of radiant goddess love energy. 💕

According to gypsypriestess.com - “The divinely radiant goddess understands the need for a true retreat. She is willing to plan and schedule the 'me time' required to indulge in her own self care. She treats herself to sensual, relaxing and empowering experiences that are truly rejuvinating.”

That’s a message I’ll take any day. 💕

✨Deep breath of gratitude. ✨

Dear Universe, I’m ready! I am choosing ease over struggle and magic over mundane. ✨

The idea that everything has to be hard and tedious to get where I’m going has not served me. Up until now, I felt like forging my path had to be this way. I am open to seeing a new way, to trusting myself more and honoring my divine purpose. I am open to life being more magical then I could ever imagine.

What limiting beliefs do you hold about success and struggle?

I’m aiming for less hustle, more alignment and sweet abundance!

Sketchbook Sunday - Lioness Energy!

What does a lioness symbolize? She embodies creativity, imagination, originality, vision, inspiration, and resourcefulness. She is the goddess and divine feminine energy.

A lioness is comfortable taking on a more dominant role and is excellent at providing for herself and others. A lioness chooses to lead by using her influential voice rather than a ferocious roar) to courageously and calmly ask for what she wants. She wants to make us realize the beautiful combination of love, care, victory, and fierceness that we hold inside.

Desire. Ask. Believe. Receive. Last months theme i

Desire. Ask. Believe. Receive. Last months theme in the Discover Your Creative Magic creativity group = VISION. We focused our energy on creating a vision board as a sacred creative practice. As we are embarking on the half year point, it felt like a nice time to to dream a little and make those dreams visible with a vision board / soul collage.

I had so many pictures to start with and found the process of choosing what stays to be the most poignant. I originally thought it was a vision for my dream home art studio space and place to retreat but while creating I started to feel like maybe I was calling in places around the country where I can participate or host a creative retreat. Maybe it’s a little of both. Time will tell. Either way, it feels really good and magical to dream this into reality.

It makes my heart so happy to see all of your vision boards in the Discover Your Creative Magic Facebook (@discoveryourcreativemagic) group too. I can feel our collective desires coming to fruition. Keep dreaming, keep sharing!

If you missed the live video, you can watch the replay in the Facebook group. (Link in bio)

While painting expressive flowers we will nourish the goddess that we are.

The Pink Lotus Flower is often used to represent one’s pure passion and love of life. Shown in full bloom represents a person at the end of their journey to enlightenment and that they have not only reached it but have attained nirvana. 💗
