Exhibition summary

Sometimes, at very short notice, life offers you an opportunity and you have to have the courage to say yes.  I did this last week, a spaced opened up at the Richard Randall Art Studio at the Mt Coot-The Botanical Gardens for nine days and I said yes to exhibit and teach there! So, here I am offering my creative expression to the world... 

“The Colour of Woman exhibition is an introspective journey via the Intentional Creativity® method to quieten the inner ‘Critic,’ and empower the inner ‘Muse.’  

In Intentional Creativity® we use our mindful awareness, inquiry, visualisation, image and language; to explore old disempowering beliefs, fears and vulnerabilities.  We create space to connect with our inner wisdom and reframe these beliefs into new empowering perspectives.

In discovering our new way of seeing and being, we are free to express ourselves in new creative ways.  It is my belief art is for everyone, we are all creative beings.

This Exhibition is my journey, to my personal truth... and in sharing mine, I hope to inspire you to have the courage to discover yours!

May your light shine bright!” 

Melanie Waters-Marsh - Artist aka MM. Coach and Intentional Creativity Teacher
