"Every brushstroke is a step toward letting go of old stories and creating new ones with intention."
Intentional Creativity is a practice of turning inward, listening deeply,
and letting what's inside you take form on the canvas.
WHAT IS Intentional Creativity ?
A Pathway to Healing Through Art + Awareness
Intentional Creativity® is a transformative process that goes beyond mere painting. It's about creating with a clear purpose and a mindful presence, leading to personal growth and healing.
At Soma Rise Studios, I guide you through a practice that combines intuitive art, personal inquiry, and mindfulness to help you connect with the deeper parts of yourself—those often hidden beneath the noise of daily life, stress, or self-doubt.
This method invites you to bring intention to every brushstroke, shape, and word. It's not about being artistic or having skill—it's about showing up, being curious, and allowing your inner voice to speak through color, symbol, and story.
A Creative PRACTICE
FOR Inner Discovery
YOU BEGIN WITH AN INQUIRY-ASKING, WHAT IS READY TO BE SEEN, HEALED, OR EXPRESSED?
From there, each hand movement becomes part of a dialogue between your inner world and the canvas. Through painting, writing, and guided reflection, your story begins to unfold in a new way.
You don't have to "know how" to make art. What matters is your willingness to listen and express what's true for you in the moment.
In this space, creativity becomes a bridge:
-
Between your conscious and subconscious mind
-
Between your pain and your possibility
-
Between the story you've lived and the one you're ready to claim
Why IT MATTERS
Intentional Creativity isn't just about making something beautiful—it's about finding beauty and meaning in the process.
This work can help:
-
Release stuck emotions
-
Clarify your next steps
-
Shift limiting beliefs
-
Reconnect you with your wisdom, your joy, and your wholeness
You bring your chaos, questions, hopes, and truth to the canvas—and in return, you gain clarity, insight, and healing.
MEDICINE PAINTING:
The Heart OF THE PRACTICE
—A GUIDED PAINTING EXPERIENCE IN WHICH THE CANVAS BECOMES A MIRROR, A SANCTUARY, AND A PLACE OF TRANSFORMATION.
This term, 'Medicine Painting,' refers to the healing nature of the process, where the act of painting becomes a form of medicine for the soul.
We paint with intention, using layers, symbols, and color to move energy and engage the whole self—body, mind, and spirit. It's a powerful tool for self-reflection and healing that invites something hidden to be seen and something sacred to emerge.
YOU ARE Creative
Intentional Creativity is a practice that embraces everyone, regardless of their artistic background.
Whether you're a novice or a seasoned creator, this process meets you where you are, affirming that everyone is inherently creative.
No prior experience is necessary.
Bring your open heart, willingness to explore, and unique story.
Through Intentional Creativity, you can transform your chaos into clarity, questions into insight, hopes into reality, and truth into healing. Are you ready to start?
