An online creative sanctuary for the curious, the reflective, and the beautifully in-progress.

This isn’t a place where you come to become someone else.

It’s a place where you remember who you are.

At The Studio Authentic, we believe creativity isn’t a talent – it’s a way of seeing.  A way of being. A way of navigating change with courage, clarity, and your whole heart intact.

Here, you won’t find quick-fix solutions or rigid formulas.

You will find thought invitations – to slow down, tune in, and explore who you’re becoming through simple creative and reflective practices.

You don’t need to call yourself an artist.

You don’t need to know the answers.

You just need a little space to listen – and the willingness to follow what you hear.

The Studio Authentic is part creative playground, part self-discovery lab. We’re here for the journalers, the question-askers, the life-transition navigators, the beauty-seekers, the ones who know there’s something more waiting under the noise.

Everything we are designing is for you:

• To think more like an artist as you mold your own transition – intuitively, courageously, and with curiosity
• To reflect more honestly – so you can make aligned choices
• To grow more authentically – from the inside out, not the outside in

If you’re craving a softer, truer way to reconnect with yourself and move forward in life… you’ve just found your studio.

Living Art is where creativity meets clarity… and everything starts to make sense.

What if your life wasn’t a to-do list to conquer… but a canvas, waiting for your hands, your colors, your rhythm?

What if reflection wasn’t just thinking things through… but listening closely to the voice that already knows what’s next?

And what if those stuck, tangles parts of your life – the ones you try to organize, fix, or ignore… were actually quiet invitations to being again.

Not from scratch, but from truth?

The Living Art Method is not about learning how to be creative. (It’s about remembering you already are.)

This is not a step-by-step system with someone else’s map.

This is your journey – guided by simple creative exercises and honest reflection. The kind that help you hear yourself more clearly, trust what you find, and act on it in your own way, in your own time.

Here, we don’t aim for perfection.

We aim for resonance.

We trade pressure for presence.

We choose curiosity over control.

Through small daily practices – the kind that feel surprisingly doable, even on messy days – you’ll begin to see thing differently.

And when you see differently, you live differently.

You don’t have to be ready. You don’t need a five-year plan.

You just have to be curious.

Because your life is a masterpiece in progress.

Let’s make it living.

“Creating paper art with intricate details provides an opportunity to turn off and tune out, allowing me to tap into and discover whatever wants discovering.”

After a long career in business and project management, I began creating with paper as a way to unwind at the end of each day. While I initially viewed this as a fun outlet, I quickly realized my evening practice with paper art led to creative problem-solving and the generation of BIG ideas. Eventually, I built the courage to leave my business career to practice art full-time, trust in my creative process, and honor where it led me.

I draw from my personal journey as inspiration, empowering others to navigate life’s transition with creativity and clarity. My journey has led me to establish this online resource dedicated to fostering authenticity and personal growth through the practice of daily creative expression and reflection. Let me be the first to welcome you to The Studio Authentic!
