ANNOUNCING BIG CHANGES!!! I am no longer teaching Intuitive Painting in my studio. After 15 years it was time to move in a different direction. I am now teaching Workshops in Discovering the Gifts of Your Shadow and Affirmative Innergetics© Online. I am also doing Private Session of these two processes Online one on one as well. Below is a description of both.

SHDOW WORK – After teaching for 15 years and each class watching my students get stronger and stronger in their sense of self I have decided to teach separately the techniques I developed to make that happen. One of the most powerful of these techniques is Shadow Work. My New online Discovering the Gifts in Your Shadow workshop runs 6 weeks and each week we cover a different aspect of your Shadow and how to integrate it back into your life. As Carl Jung says this will make you “more whole.” The great part is you can learn to do this yourself and to recognize when your shadow is effecting your life. Then you can do something about it. This was always one of the most powerful parts of the painting class and I’m glad I can pass it along.

To learn more about the Shadow Class go to my website https://spiritmaskjourneys.com/study-groups/ . To find out more about private sessions of Shadow go to https://spiritmaskjourneys.com/working-with-your-shadow/ To request a private session or sign up for a group workshop email me at carolyn_winkler@comcast.net and I will get back to you to schedule or add you to a list for a group. I look forward to working together and sharing these valuable tools. Carolyn

The First Online Shadow Class is scheduled to begin Thursday May 11, 2023 from 5- 7 through Thursday June 15th. Let me know if you would like to join us and I will add you to the list. Limited to 8 participants so we have plenty of time to work with each participant in each class. There are only 6 spaces left so let me know right away if you would like to join. Cost of 6 weeks is $35 per week for a total of $210.

Email me if you have any questions or want to join. Carolyn

AFFIRMATIVE INNERGETICS© – Is a process I developed after working with clients and combining my training in Clean Language, Shadow Work with Debbie Ford and Psych-K for muscle tesiting. I have used it on clients over the years and even on myself for amazing results. Here is the web link to find out more about the group https://spiritmaskjourneys.com/study-groups/ I will be teaching online group class to be announced soon.

For information on private sessions of Affirmative Innergetics© to help you deal with difficult situations and beliefs that don’t work for you or are causing you pain. Go to this link to learn more about them https://spiritmaskjourneys.com/private-sessions/

If you are interested in these new classes and sessions please email me and I can answer any questions you may have. I will be doing them on zoom so I’m not limited to Portland where I live.

It’s summer and what better time to have fun, relax and get into your authentic self playing with paint.  This process is powerful and fun at the same time.  You start without a plan and just start painting and by doing this you let the other realms communicate with you.  You learn to use your intuition to discover deep truths.  

So if you are looking for ways to be more authentic and know more about your inner worlds in a fun way this is the weekend for you.  I have been doing this for over 15 years and am always amazed at the paintings and insights that want to come.

Posted in Uncategorized on February 19, 2022 by Carolyn Winkler

The theme this time will be “We’re Going In” and that is what we will be doing.  Going inside to discover more about ourselves while we play with paint.  No previous art experience necessary, all art supplies included. 

Details below.  Also a great restart for experienced artists feeling a little stuck.  

After years of doing this I know how important it is to experience the power of our creativity and inner wisdom.  By not having a plan and going into the unknown of the paper we play with the paint and it tells us what we need to know.  We learn a lot about ourselves during the process and it can help make us stronger in our everyday life.  Join us for two full days of painting and playing and exploring our authentic selves.  This is not about better techniques of painting but finding the deeper parts of yourself.  Looking forward to painting with you and seeing what wants to come.  

Just email me at carolyn_winkler@comcast.net if you want to join and I will put you on the list.

The workshops starts each morning at 10am and goes to 5pm. I ask that you arrive between 9:30 and 9:50 so we can start right on time.  The cost is $190 for first time participants and discounted to $170 for students taking it the second or multiple times. Many students take it 4 or 5 times.  So wether this is your first time or one of many I promise you a fun, creative, self discovery like nothing else you have done before.  All you have to do is wear old clothes you can get paint on and bring a sack lunch. I will do the rest. I provide various teas and healthy snacks. Looking forward to painting with you.

No worries if you are a beginner and never taken this class or any other art class before. All you have to do is come with an open heart and mind and the paint will do the rest. It will open the door for you and give you exactly what you need. As one of my students once said “my life was like a submarine and this opened up the hatch.” That is what I hope for you, to open up what’s inside of you through the fun of paint. This simple creative act can really change your life.

*If you are from out of town and have always wanted to visit Portland there are lots of airbnb’s around near the studio.

Please Email carolyn_winkler@comcast.net. if you would like to be put on the list. I look forward to painting with you if you are new and seeing old friends again if you painted with me before

INTUITIVE PAINTING

FINDING YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF WITH PAINT

We all get so much information about what we should do and what we should think form outside in the world.  Rarely do we explore our inner world the one inside us to see what it is we want and what it is we care about.  I have been teaching this workshop for over 13 years and each time I watch my students get stronger and stronger in their sense of self each day they paint.  When we take the time to be creative from the inside out it makes big changes in how we understand ourselves and the world.

This workshop is for anyone, young and old, artist and layman, creatives and those that think they are not.  It’s about exploring and finding out what being yourself is all about.  It’s not about better techniques of painting but better techniques of being your authentic self.

So if you want a fun weekend of painting and exploring and learning to listen to your inner self and  it’s wisdom, come and paint with us, you will be amazed.

I look forward to painting with you in 2020, lets start off the New Decade right. 

Only 8 spaces: I keep it small and intimate so we all have time to process and share.  No experience necessary I will provide all the materials and inspiration you need. All you have to do is wear old clothes you can get paint on and bring a sack lunch.  I provide healthy snacks and a verity of teas. Just come and paint it will take you where you need to go.

The workshops starts each morning at 10am and goes to 5pm. I ask that you arrive between 9:30 and 9:50 so we can start right on time.  The cost is $190 for first time participants and discounted to $170 for students taking it the second or multiple times.

Reawaken and Reconnect with your Creative Spirits.  Learn to trust the process, yourself and the universe to give you want you need. Just let go and follow the paint and it will take you where you need to go.

Can’t wait to paint with all of you and watch the weekend unfold.  I’m always amazed at the paintings that want to come and how they explore the deeper parts of us and what we truly need.  I love the messages I have received from my paintings and the courage to follow what I want to do in my life.  A lot happens in an Intuitive Painting Weekend and it’s always powerful and fun.  So if you are looking for a fun way to discover yourself this is the weekend for you.

Fanning The Fire Within come join us for a fun weekend of self exploration and inspiration using paint. What better way to start the New Year off right than playing with paint and discovering from this Deeper Intuitive part of you. What ever your life needs for the coming year will be revealed.  Metaphors hold a lot of information and we will work with them and unpack them to see what it is that will fan your inner fire.  It’s always fun to do this class at the beginning of the year because of the new possibilities every New Year brings.  Just like a new dawn but bigger. So come and find the wisdom and strength within you.  Let your life and inner fire burn a little brighter this coming year.

 

No worries if you are a beginner and never taken this class or any other art class before.  All you have to do is come with an open heart and mind and the paint will take you where you need to go.  It will open the door for you and give you exactly what you need.  As one of my students once said “my life was like a submarine and this opened up the hatch.”  That is what I hope for you, to open up what’s inside of you through the fun of paint.  Such a simple creative act can really change your life.

*Extra Days Added On.  This year I’m going to try a new experiment.  One of my students requested that she wanted to paint for longer. That she thought there was a lot more she needed to explore and that a couple more days of painting would be great.  So for those of you that want to go even deeper you can add on the extra two days for an additional  $80 per day.  The studio will be open so you can add one or two days what ever suits your needs.  Just let me know when you sign up or during the weekend if you want to take advantage of this option.

Look forward to painting with you.  Each class is a new experience.  My studio is called “Going Deep” because we let out the parts of us we buried there long ago.  I promise a powerful experience and hope you can join me.  We’re Going In!
