Profile Information

My interest is in
Touch Drawing Personal Use, Facilitating Touch Drawing
What brings you to an interest in Touch Drawing or SoulCards?
I have been doing Touch drawing for about 10 years, as a participant and a facilitator, in educational and therapeutic settings. i teach Touch Drawing as one of the core courses in the Art and Healing Certificate Program at Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota, FL. My co-teacher, Victoria Domenichello-Anderson and myself believe that Touch Drawing is potentially such a powerful creative and personal experience that all the students in this Expressive Arts program can benefit greatly by taking the class. I have been teaching small weekly Touch Drawing workshops in my studio for about a year and a half as well. As a visual artist, I mount many of my Touch Drawings on canvas and further develop them, usually with acrylics.I have attended one TD gathering.
My experience applies to:
Therapy, Art, Creativity, Education, Aging, Health, Abuse, Grief, Parkinsons, Meditation, Expressive Arts

We are doing team building, expressive arts therapy, retreats, classes and workshops for adults and children.

IMAGES OF SOUL Exhibit: EXTENDED UNTIL JAN 8!!!!

We are currently hosting our first community Touch Drawing Exhibit at Expressive Arts Florida. It is amazing and powerful to stand in a room surrounded by the energy of the Touch Drawings of 20 people! The Artist's Reception was last Friday evening, and it generated a lot of curiosity, fascination, and interest in the touch drawing process.
I have posted some images here. We are blessed to have Deborah's beautiful "Seeds of Compassion" so gracefully and lovingly holding the space in our gallery!… Continue

Hi Kathleen. I keep trying to get to a page to register for Deborah's March workshop and nothing is coming up, on the community page or the main page. Any suggestions? Also, what is the cost for this workshop?
Thanks so much,
Angel-Rose

katheen - great you are connecting with people here bout the workshop. I think we have 10 registered already. I'll be in two interviews this week - send me a link for the TD exhibit and I will add that to my website so people who go to the site from the interviews can see it. I'll mention the places I will be teaching if possible, and send them to the schedule page.
