It doesn't have to be overwhelming to do the work you're here to do. Your creative work and how you offer service to the world can and should be nourishing to you as well. My art work is my grounding and my teacher- it takes me to the places I need to grow and provides tools for transformation and healing.
In so many ways I experience my creative work as my spiritual practice, a way to connect to the essential truths of my life and the collective life of the culture and the planet. If you resonate with this way of connecting to your creative work and you are longing to expand, deepen or reawaken your creative flow, or if you are ready to put it out into the world with integrity and pleasure, I may be able to help.

Report
Taproot Arts and Insight is built out of elements that have been weaving through my many previous life chapters and continues to grow as I push into the newest chapters. As a life coach I not only have training from an extraordinary coaching program, Psychosynthesis Center, but also decades as an artist and a college professor, as well as a deep training and ongoing practice in authentic movement and a previous chapter as a massage therapist.
Persephone's Dream sales page
Report
This beautiful and deeply moving piece is cast in bronze. It is perfect as a point of focus for a contemplative garden or a sacred space in the home. She is a quietly powerful piece that invites an inner reflection and honoring ones deeper truth. This piece is made to order and takes roughly 3-4 months to complete.
Portrait Sculpture by Val Gilman
Report
A really great sculptural portrait is something that will affect your life in a deeply positive way for as long as it is with you. It is a reflection not just of what the sitter looks like, but also their character and presence. If it is a portrait of you, it can help you stay in touch with what is important to you over time, and to trust yourself.
Life Coach for Creatives
Report
Is it possible to be an artist or creative, make real and meaningful art work and still live a sane, healthy life?. Making art, if you do it with integrity and heart, is a vulnerable and all-consuming thing. And in our culture, there is very little support for it. In fact, there can be animosity toward you if you are doing work that is not standard fare.
