My interest is in

Touch Drawing Personal Use, SoulCards Personal Use, Facilitating Touch Drawing

What brings you to an interest in Touch Drawing or SoulCards?

I am a spiritual coach, and have felt called to use Touch Drawing with my clients and in workshops, since I first attended Deborah's workshop years ago in Seattle.. I am facilitating my first TD workshop next week with a group of youth.

My experience applies to:

Therapy, Art, Creativity, Spiritual, Intuitive, Children, Teens, Meditation, Family

Other areas of interest & experience

Art, travel, spirituality, cooking, recovery, teaching.

Have you done Touch Drawing?

Yes

Have you facilitated Touch Drawing?

Not yet but I plan to

In what setting have you facilitated?

next week, in Kansas City at the United Centers for Spiritual Living Annual Gathering with the Youth group. A hotel conference room set up with several tables.

Share a special experience with Touch Drawing or SoulCards.

The first time I did Touch Drawing all of my pictures featured a mother with child...turned out to be me!

Do you facilitate SoulCards with others?

Is there anything else you would like us to know about you?

I would welcome all technical tips. I'm experimenting with several types of boards and paints. Would love to hear what's worked for you. Also love to hear about Touch Drawing done as a spiritual practice for a group.

I have recently tried using fine sandpaper to just break the slick surface a bit. You could expereiment with that. It wasn't the most obvious difference, but I might try a bit more sanding next time. Any chance you could roll out a thinlayer of paint on the obards the day before and keep them outside to dry, and not spread their 'aroma'? ( I have been told by paint chemists that this term is more accurate ( and non-threatening0 than 'fumes'. I use new boards quite often, and usually it is only a small percentage of people who have a problem with them. So another idea is to have a few extra new boards on hand and give them to anyone whose paint gets particulalry 'uneven' on the new boards. Hope this helps - Blessings, Deborah
(PS It was WOW, not WISE - Women of Wisdom - but your version of the name certainly fits!

It has everything i could think of to help people share Touch Drawing - It's really importnat to have the materials right and know that you do before leading a group. We actually are just about to reprint it, and are jsut out of stock as of today, but if you don't have it and want to get it, i could send you a pdf of it temorarily until we have the new reprint - It wil take a week or two. What kinds of boards and paints have you been experimenting with? I am always interested in new ideas and could even add a new idea to the workbook reprint if I hear right back on this. Blessings, Deborah
