Description
by Aviva Gold (Author)
"IMAGINE a world where each person practices intuitive art a few moments each day...drawing, poem, dance, song, or ritual... surely this universal act of healing prayer opens hearts, fostering right action for the entire web of life," says Aviva Gold. This updated version of Gold's classic guide to ritual visual expression, Painting From The Source: Awakening The Artists Soul In Everyone (Harper Collins, 1998), now includes the long-awaited sequel, which inspires the reader to not only seek out the artist within, but to bring that creativity into the world and to inspire others to do the same. The new final chapters, Source Art in The World, address improvised arts as a powerful spiritual ritual and eco-activism practice, with instructions on implementation. The Complete PFTS is an essential read for anyone interested in how authentic creativity can re-enchant and heal our ailing world. It is a call for art activism as a catalyst for cultural transformation. The digital companion version is supplemented with over 70 links to illustrative web sites, definitions and videos. www.PaintingFromTheSource.comENDORSEMENTS: "Aviva Gold believes conscious evolution can be sparked byoutpouring of creativity and her book and work are an important piece of the transformative fabric of the human imagination.

Jeff Hunter, New Paradigm Press"Here is the manifesto for joyous creative change the world has been waiting for. Aviva leads us into the future fearlessly as only a fully wild woman can, paintbrush aloft, chanting and dancing. She is a worthy guide as we paint the new world into being." Pat B.
