Soul Collage Workshop on Sat. September 17th, 2011, 10 to 4 p.m. with Heather Smeding. INTRODUCTORY SOULCOLLAGE®
WORKSHOP
Creative, Nurturing & Fun!
Use magazine images to make small 5” X 7” cards that represent parts of your Self and speak to you [in sometimes surprising ways] from your own quiet wisdom. SoulCollage® is a powerful, intuitive collage/journaling process that you can continue to practice by yourself or in community as a way to help you answer life’s questions by accessing your inner ‘knowing’.
Heather Smeding is a trained SoulCollage® Facilitator and has been making her own cards since 2003. The book [‘A Hârmunee of Parts’] she created for the Orillia International Women’s Day Art Show is based on some of the 100+ SoulCollage® cards in her personal deck.
‘Each time I do SoulCollage®
I find more of me to bring to my marriage, my parenting, my community, my life.....’
