The following works I created after I started my training and vocation as a Waldorf teacher. While prior to this training my work was primarily reproducing what I saw in the world around me, trying as hard as I could to be like a human camera--and always falling short of that 'ideal' and then having the hangover of 'not being good enough'--with this training I began to learn to just play with colors and to let whatever that wanted to arise to come forth. Art not only began to be more enjoyable but became a part of my spiritual path. My creativity and spiritual pursuits no longer had a schism but merged into my daily breathing--of inner and outer.
