In recent years my work has gifted me by crossing paths with artists who have used art as a therapeutic and healing tool. Their courage to go inside and struggle with the imagery is a path towards wholeness. I share a piece of the journey of one such artist I crossed paths with this past year. James My encounter with your website already transformed my personality from one reticent to confront life fully, to one eager to do so! "Gratefully, just as the horse uses its tail to brush off pesky horseflies to avoid their painful bites, the power of artistic expression has helped / is helping me to weave my own "tale of violation, woe and healing" with which to brush off the painful blows of outrageous fortune and seek to emerge a victorious and better man for it." |
