Demonstration: “Color Fusion Experience” with Dorothy Fagan

January 15

12:00 noon – 5:00 pm

   

Discover the missing goddess color connection to mind body spirit vitality, as Dorothy Fagan demonstrates her Color Fusion Palette. Participants will learn to feel colors in the body, and use them to direct vitality and creative flow. In her painting demonstration, Dorothy will show exactly how she receives subtle cues from the Creator, and how she uses them to manifest desires and dreams.

The program is suitable for artists and non-artists alike, and will not involve hands-on painting during the session. Participants will be given a materials list to try at home.

Cost is $100 per participant.



FROM THE ARTIST

“So many people tell me they are not creative! Yet the Creator works in all of us through color- transforming mind body spirit from cloudy to energized each time the sun comes out from behind the clouds!”

In this extraordinary collection of healing art and poetry, haiku coalesce with color to release the innate flow of creativity to the body.

Engaging readers in mixing colors in the mind’s eye with heart &soul, Fagan shares her personal healing art journey to help others experience the Creator’s presence every day.

These rich, luxurious mixed-media limited edition works are aligned to Dorothy Fagan’s Color Fusion Palette. Printed one by one, on Torchon Hahnemuhle heavy-weight, acid-free, rough-textured fine art paper with premium archival inks, Fagan fuses her love of printmaking, painting, and poetry with her life’s mission of uplifting others with her artistry and remarkable life story.
