Q&A Q: Where did the idea of the Permission Granted workshops come from ? _ A: I was having a discussion one day with a dear friend and associate who does a specific workshop with me and we were bouncing around ideas . The conversation turned to the energy in the workshop and how some participants approach a workshop, questioning whether I felt they were a good fit for the program - not trusting their instinct. I remarked, 'almost like they were asking for permission' - Permi...ssion Granted Q: Who do you hope to reach with your workshops ? _ A: In the beginning, people will find it who are looking to enhance their creativity, find more ways to access it more easily, finding personal satisfaction expressing themselves in more unique ways. Ultimately, finding the participant who doesn't know right now that accessing their creativity has life benefits, that it can be a coping strategy to deal with stress, a source of positive energy physically and emotionally. Q: What started your research on the subject ? _ A: We're all students of life. Spirituality, philosophy and art with emphasis on accessing the subconscious have always been a focus in mine, finding the zone of all possibilities Through the years painting and instructing, creativity sessions and workshops has shown me fascinating examples of the vulnerabilities we all have in common, the confidence levels we face as adults, and the limitations we accept, that have no basis in reality. www.permissiongranted.org 1.800.393.7270 #artandvisualizationworkshops #monhegan #pleinair #pleinairpainter #pleinairpainting
