The Visual Creation Method™
Intuitive Visual Creation is a way to become connected to your visions and create the life you love.
In the state of balance and openness, we are more inspired to consciously build and clarify the image that we hold internally, so what we would love in our life can take place.
Here is what you’ll get
✅ Opportunity to get out of stress and find a deeper meaning in these changing times
✅ Two full hours with yourself to turn down the volume on your doubts and turn up the volume on your intuition (…and get the clarity you long for)
✅ Space to use your imagination to craft positive mental images and attract your desired outcomes (Reconnect with your creative powers)
✅ Connection with like-hearted others in a creatively inspiring space
✅ A single-focused practice that leads you to your vision (Say goodbye to multitasking and scatteredness)
No artistic experience needed; it’s about your creative journey!

The Story Behind
When I tried the technique I had learned in my meditation, the result was astonishing. The pictures came out energetic and expressive, but most importantly, I felt elevated and fulfilled in the process of creating.
At that moment, I knew I had found a treasure: the creative force within.
The impact of these events inspired me to share my newly developed method with others. I held my first Intuitive Painting Workshop in the summer of 2014, and I have facilitated numerous others since.
Intuitive Painting is not a regular painting class but is a vehicle for personal growth, self-expression, and wellness.
Intuitive Painting also stimulates the imagination, that is a magnificent tool to unlock creativity, awaken senses, and bring infinite possibilities into our lives.
