About the Creative Soul Guides ~ Art to Awaken Your Creative Soul

Creative Soul Guides help us enter into other realms; realms where inspiration, quirkiness, love, and being different are okay.

Kathy Crabbe painted the Creative Soul Guides with her non-dominant left hand. This awakened Kathy’s intuition and she started giving Creative Soul Readings using a deck of 88 cards.

The White Goddess

Today's Lefty painting was inspired by Lauren Lee Smith's performance in Lie with me and the book The White Goddess by Robert Graves. I hope all of you had a merry Solstice with time for some deep relaxation and meditation, or is that even possible at this time of year?  Whatever amount of time you can afford, take it - you need it now more than ever.

Tonite i fly

When you know what you want the 'how' will decide on its own. Making art in this way opens my heart. ie. not knowing where or how my art will touch people, but just trusting that it will.

The feet and the nose are of utmost importance in my drawings ... and in real life!

Creative Soul Tips or How I Get in the Mood for Painting These Guys

Sit. Breathe. Deep Breath. Be Still.

Let the process guide YOU. Follow. Don't Lead.

Take lots of breathing breaks.

Normally I'm really quite a logical, structured, abstract thinking, internal processing, accurate kinda gal, but doing this work; drawing with my non dominant (left) hand turns me into a whole other creature entirely (see below).

Don't Give Up Pandora

Is it just me or is this time of year slightly depressing?  To combat the general malaise... ahem (big words for big feelings) I paint, and I paint strong women plus I meditate and call upon Her. I participated in a Spiral Dance led by Starhawk for Winter Solstice last Saturday in LA after attending the Renegade Craft Fair; what a dichotomy!  Perhaps I'm being harsh but the fair felt like Gen Y's in corporate art mode (beautiful and all, but very very digital and the art all looked the same) and then in the Reclaiming Tradition the Solstice event was of course pagan and kinda like attending church for smart hippies; lots of dancing, calling in of the elements and drumming by folks with very interesting names.  I prefer the latter; dancing freely is fun! Plus Starhawk with her permaculture activist background orates spectacularly; all of us were mesmerized as we swayed in tune with her words and her drum. Pandora watercolor by artist Kathy Crabbe

Today's painting is yet another Goddess-ey being who i named Pandora after listening to Tori Amos' song Pandora's Aquarium. Tori is a Goddess, so if you haven't listened to her yet...do. She rocks magically, big time.
