Published -- in New Book

Dear readers,
So the cat is out of the bag and I can finally spill the beans.

I'm delighted and excited to announce that I am one of the featured contributing artists in magical artista Alena Hennessy's new book "Intuitive Painting Workshop; Techniques, Prompts and Inspiration for a Year of Painting" … It is available on pre-sale already over on Amazon!

It takes you step-by-step through a month-by-month, season-to-season, Intuitive Painting workshop, exploring through using a range of glorious mixed media supplies.  I am happy to say that I am very blessed indeed and lucky to know many of the other artists who are featured in this beautiful book alongside me…and I know it will be lush, colourful, and very, very inspiring!  

Blessings of beauty and mystery for your own creative journey,
Catherine Athena xo

taste:: Relaxing Camomile and Liquorice tea…seems to really hit the right note.
smell:: Sandal Darshan incense cones leave a heady, exotic fragrant imprint in my studio space ~ the day I burn it, and the days after too.
touch:: My heart. The inner Soul work of late has been intense. Exhale and onward.
see:: Through new eyes the many ways my body messages me about what I am really feeling and thinking.
hear:: Clannad. I'm having a bit of a Celtic revival as the Year Wheel turns to the darker, colder more introspective months.
think:: I need to get out into the woods today and imbue some Greenwood energy from the Tree people! The scent of leaf-mould and crunch of new fallen leaves is invigorating!
feel:: Calm and prepared, ready for the coming Full 'Blood' Moon eclipse next week.
read:: Clarissa Pinkola Estes' classic 'Women Who Run With The Wolves' -- just takes me deeper and deeper on each and every read.
intuit:: Change, Change, Change up ahead, on the home front, the work front, and the creative art front. I am well seasoned at riding these continual waves by now.
