FEAR, we all have it. Some of us struggle with it more than others. Sometimes there is a very good reason for it and sometimes it just holds us back from experiencing some of the greatest moments we could enjoy in our lives. Taking charge of fear can open us up to new wonderful adventures that change our path in life, open a new doorway, or just let us feel FREE and CHERISHED.

When I decided to GO FOR IT in creating this retreat for you, it was like taking a deep breath and while breathing out, my heart just bloomed. This is the path I am meant to be on and thankfully I have a great family that has joined me in this adventure. For life is just one great big adventure filled with many stories to share and I would like to share this one with you.
My dream with ‘Into the heART’ is to create, for you, a welcoming space to just be yourself. Be open, meet kindred spirits who accept you for who you are, share your creative streak, laugh (or snort) out load and create wonderful memories and friendships.
This Spring weekend adventure has been in the works for a year now. I have planned, studied, researched, been schooled in large event planning, marketed, hired staff, designed graphics, been my own website guru, brainstormed, had meetings galore, stayed up to the wee hours of the night, been kept awake all night with my ideas in overdrive and put all my love and creative passion into this ‘adventure story’. If you are a fan of my art, you will have actually noticed that my artwork has been put on the back burner for awhile. Thankfully I have some great friends that encourage me to take breaks & bring out the art supplies (like last Tuesday…lol). CLICK here for more history on CFE (Creative Finds Events) and scroll down on that page.
I am so very excited to see ‘Into the heART’ come to fruition! We are going to have so much fun!!!
And the WORKSHOP INSTRUCTORS… oh my goodness, they are FAB! I was flooded with applicants months ago, by those that wished to teach and it was such a hard decision, but I did it with the help of my CFE (Creative Finds Events) team. We (the Instructors & I) are so excited to share techniques, knowledge of favorite supplies, love of creation and ourselves with you. We all are looking forward to greeting you on May 22 in Harrison.

Have a wonderful day & we will see you soon!

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Loads of love and creativity!

ART QUOTE: “I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I would imagine her, and imagine that she must be out there thinking of me too. Well, I hope that if you are out there and read this and know that, yes, it’s true I’m here, and I’m just as strange as you.” ― Frida Kahlo
