The journey of Colours Awakening to Heart-Touched took me two years. It has led me to travel to many countries to share and also to learn; and, recently, to settle down in my native land of Taiwan with a deeper appreciation of life ignited by Art.
My exploration of intuition with pastel art has birthed marvelous artistic works and creative course designs.
Often, people ask me:
* Did you plan the path of freelance teaching before you quit your safe, salaried job?
* How did you design the ingenious courses in inner-exploration with art?
Honestly, even though I am an “Earth” sign, my left-brain faculty of logic and reason was affected simply by experiencing pastel art. Like all novices, I noticed a tug of war between my Reason and Intuition. I doubted whether I should throw myself completely into the love of what I was doing. I carried many long-held fears and measured the divide between Dream and Practicality.
Fortunately, with beautiful encounters and support, all of the stars aligned in the divine marriage of my dream and practicalities of life, and my journey in my Life Work began.
For me and many others who are equally passionate about it, Pastel Art is an approach to life and nourishment of the soul. It goes beyond the technicalities of making art, aesthetics, and heritage. It is a pathway to tapping into the potential within each of us. This is a journey of embracing life with warmth and wonderment. When we live as the best of who we are, we begin to discover the abundance of resources in the world, which then will be a mirror of the vastness of our inner world.
