From The Ends Of The Earth To The Depths Of The Psyche
We are back from the ends of the Earth, one of them at least
To tell you about what we found on our doorstep when we returned
And how the path forward is illuminated by a cast of characters,
ranging from Walt Whitman to Wallace and Gromit.
With cameo appearances by Bach, Picasso, Rembrandt, and Stephen Jay Gould.
Journeying To The End Of The Earth
We have a story to tell- of journeying with our daughter to the end of the earth. Following in the footsteps of a man
who followed his vision seventeen centuries ago. Golf plays a part, but we didn’t play a single round.
Kimy’s new beginning in a seemingly unlikely place was ultimately engendered by a very old beginning, that of St. Regulus landing (or perhaps being shipwrecked) on the stone ramparts of St. Andrews, resolutely defying the open North Sea. Unlikeliness begets unlikeliness, and stories grow like fecund plants, we have only to let them.
The Adjacent Possible: The Art Of The Possible
The adjacent possible is about paying attention and purposely stumbling over things.

PRAISE FOR NANCY
Vera took her painting to a new level
Nancy, you are full of life and have a deep understanding of the “other.” You are a fantastic teacher. Your lessons are so intelligently put together! You not only provided invaluable information, you opened doors to a new level in painting and led us through with your encouragement & belief that we can do it. You made it possible for us to venture in new territory & helped us through it!
~ Vera V. Tchikovani, San Francisco, CA, Artist’s Journey® Course Alumna
Betty found her own style
Not only did I learn about the fundamentals of creating abstract art, but I learned them in a way that was deeper and easy to understand. The weekly lesons, videos, and assignments helped me hone in on techniques through practice. The FB form was an amazing group of supportive artists and Nancy’s feedback, guidance, and support were invaluable. It’s been the best online course I have taken and completed!
~ Betty Franks Krause
Chrissy now understands the path to her best work
Nancy gives the gift of soul work with intuitive abstract art, moving through fear and into the present moment with joyful experimentation. I now understand the path to my best work, to be able to paint with an expressive aliveness, and am deeply grateful for Nancy’s genuine care and individual attention. The content is presented sincerely and simply, and is deeply motivating.
