"muscular angels pry

open the dark

to release the most

exquisite dawn,

each bird that flies up

is a tiny spark that

does not extinguish

but goes on and on"

Have a day filled with hope.

Laura Hollick-Soul artist

I was researching an art gallery in Ontario and

came across the work of artist Laura Hollick.

Based in Hamilton, Ontario she has a studio

dedicated to her work of teaching creativity

and spirituality. She is referred to as a soul artist.

She does art installations often using herself

in costume as a model. She draws and paints.

She teachs classes on creativity and how to access

your soul. She has a radio show covering

artists. She exhibits her art.

One of her quotes that struck me

is as follows:

"your life is your soul's art,

create your masterpiece-create

yourself"

Here is some of her work:

Sketch for 'hook your dreams':

"If you want to hook your dreams

you need some really good bait.

The best bait for your dreams is

your full flowering attention"

Sketch for let 'yourself be lifted':

"Let yourself be lifted and stretch

into your potential"

Concept sketch for Winter Tree:

Then an art installation

named 'Winter Tree"

"If you trace our roots

the very essence, you find

we are all connected. On

a deep level I am a tree and

birds perch on my arms.

In the land of the

imaginative heart, I am

connected with spirit and earth."

Laura strikes me as a tremendous talent.
