Inspired by Leftys: Creative Soul Spotlight on Christine

One of the biggest thrills for me in sharing my Lefty art in-progress on Instagram is inspiring others to paint their own 'leftys' or non-dominant hand drawings and stories which is exactly what Christine, today's featured Creative Soul has done.

Spotlight on Creative Soul Christine

Your paintings are inspiring and it's been so healing for me to be with my lefty's.

After meditation I always journal and now I like to play for a bit. Left hand only inspired by LeftyCrab aka Kathy Crabbe (see below).

I am not 'an artist' in the medium of visual arts so when I sit I just let myself be guided. I never know what's coming up! Today's was a doozy and more about a message of 'letting go' and stop letting some improbable quest for 'perfection' keep me from living fully! That's a mouthful!  ~ Christine

About Christine

A mixologist of herbs, earth, seasons, flavor and life.  I have been a practitioner and student of the healing arts for over 25 years. Over the last 20 years I have guided people on their own journey toward well being through the arts of hatha yoga, conscious eating and bodywork. These days I like to play in the big pool of the unknown and each dayhold space for myself and those who work with me to dive into that potential.

Share Your Leftys!

Please feel free to share your Leftys and stories with me and you might get featured on my blog or in a possible museum exhibit for The 52 Project which began in May of 2015 and is open to all - here's what it's about:

This self-directed 52-week art  journaling exercise will help you develop the routines of capturing your creative thoughts and being artful on a regular basis. This exercise will lead you to slowly but surely accomplish some exciting things. As Steven Pressfield says in his book, DO THE WORK, “Start before you are ready” …you won’t be sorry. Steinbeck believed…”habit seems to be a much stronger force than either willpower or inspiration."
