Personal Shrines

Each of us has a story to tell...some of us can write that story down and some of us are not comfortable with that.  Whatever your feelings are, it's okay.   Having a visual chronicle of the aspect of you is an important and exciting thing to create.  Become a co-creator with me in the story of your life...  What makes you tick?  What special 'thing' is it that makes you YOU?  Do you like music?  What kind?  Do you like books?  What kind?  Do you have a secret fantasy to become an archeologist and dig for historical treasure around the globe?  Would you like to teach, or paint, or raise roses?  We EACH have our story to tell... tell me yours... and then we can create, together, a visual representation of that life--YOUR life...

What is a Shrine?

The dictionary shares that a shrine is a receptacle for sacred relics, or a place that is considered sacred because of its relationship to a holy person or event, but artists create shrines to express many things using artifacts and other objects that are significant to the person or event without any religious connection, necessarily.

Shrines are all about celebrating what story you'd like to share... Travel, Someone Special, an event you want to celebrate.
