Learning to create a nurturing environment

When I see a beautifully glazed piece of pottery, I will examine it, delve into the patterns and colors, wonder how it was made... and eventually consider if the novice potter in me could replicate the technique. This joy of examining pottery inspired me to recreate the delightful sensation in my painting experience. Most of my paintings start out as layers of washes that bear a strong resemblance to glossy ceramic glazes running together on a surface.

By providing a relaxing space for girls to be creatively free and work collaboratively, I believe I'm giving them an opportunity to experience the beauty of self-nurture among peers. My intention is for these experiences to inspire every girl to recreate her own nurturing environments as she moves into healthy adolescence and adulthood.
