Wave

Here's my second painting, temporarily perching on this pedestal, soaking up the scrutiny.

Wave

Oil on Canvas

16"x16"

As you may be able to tell, I really had fun with this one. I got messy. It was my first attempt with a palette knife and I fell in love. 

In person, this painting is almost sculptural, it's so 3D. I wanted to get all the differences between water moving en masse in a surge, fragmenting into droplets as it falls, and roiling as foam when it meets the navel of the next wave. Delicious.

And I'm still sucked into that bit of blue sky at the end every time. I want to go there!

So, this is a less personal painting than Polar Bear, but there's still something of me in it. 

There's something of FreeDancing in the movement and the way water succumbs to all forces whilst carving through mountains and chiseling shimmers into the sea bed. There's something of me in this heave, poise, fall, tumble, heave...

There's something of me here for you, with open arms.

Sometimes the fall is the best bit.

Life Movement Coach

I work as a Life Movement Coach. I have trained as a Life Coach and have been training in shamanism since 2001.

Previously I was working as a Shamanic Life Coach, but I felt that excluded too many people from my work. So, now I have incorporated my years of dance and movement training into my Coaching practise, and have decided to allow the spirit of my work to flow from that.

Life Movement Coaching is a body-centred form of Life Coaching which encourages holistic development in your way, and at your pace.

This is not a linear path to your goals - in fact, it is common for your goals to change as your life changes.

This is a path which will follow your feet. This is uniquely your path, and I would be honoured to walk a little way with you.

I wish I could show you,

When you are lonely or in darkness,

The Astonishing Light

Of your own Being!
