PAINT YOUR RESILIENT heart

Joyce Merrick

Please Join me on a painting journey, along with Saint Bernadette, to reclaim your joy. Saint Bernadette (1844-1879) discovered the healing water in the caves at Lourdes, France. She was a poor young girl looking for firewood in the cave when Mother Mary appeared to her telling her to build a church at that site. This church is now known as the cathedral of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes. I was so inspired when I read Bernadette's story and her experience with Mother Mary. Bernadette said that there was something in her that enabled her to rise above everything and she was not afraid. I knew I needed to paint with Saint Bernadette. I would love to share this process and my experience with you. Thank you! Joyce Merrick

ABOUT ME

I have been painting in the method called intentional creativity for 3 years, ever since the death of my daughter, Amy. Painting helped comfort me and I felt a connection with the Divine.
I live in Northern Michigan with my husband, a dog, cat and 5 horses. I find so much peace in nature and love my woodsy surroundings. We've also lived in Ann Arbor,
Northern California and Fiji, My current work is in the impressionist symbolic style. I teach intentional creativity classes locally and also have an on-line healing program entitled PAINT YOUR BROKEN HEART. I've been painting for years and have studied with various artists. I graduated from Siena Heights University with a BA in Humanities. During my studies at Siena Heights, I had many art classes, including art therapy. I am not a certified art therapist but can surely pass along my personal experience with the benefits of artmaking in my healing journey. I believe the spontaneous creation of art offers a way to memorialize the relationship with the deceased and facilitate continuing bonds. Art making is a restorative and assertive act that produced new insights and understanding for me.
