Sacred Vessel:  A Painter's Handbook

1/16/2015

 
Picture
Beginning a career as a visual artist can be difficult as it isn't a typical career choice.  An artist's life is a vulnerable one, filled with so many variables.  I  believe that there is success in collaboration and hope that in sharing some of the wisdom that has been shared by many others along with the experience I have gained in my creative journey I can help someone else on theirs.  'Sacred Vessel: A Painter's Handbook' is now available here.

WIN A FREE COPY (pre-edit):
I ordered a sample copy while I was working on the book to preview for errors and so I have a free copy (pre-edit) for someone.  Just leave me a message here or on facebook or twitter or email and if more than one person is interested I'll pick a name.  Just make sure to leave me information on how to contact you :)

Hi Veronica,

I've been meaning to comment for some time now, so this seems a perfect opportunity! I'd love to win a copy of your book!

I discovered your blog a while back, and have spent many enjoyable hours (!) going through your archives. I love your Wednesday Inspirations -- Lawren Harris and Georgia O'Keefe are among my favourites too.

Thank you for your thoughtful writing.

After 30+ years in the corporate world and 5 years post divorce, which meant releasing a family business we built, investing time and resources in to training, as of Jan. 2, 2015 I am all in on making my "soul career" work, teaching a healing, transformative method of painting. I love collaboration and would appreciate you thoughts and ideas on how to make this leap successful. Thank you

id be very excited to win this book, I am a self taught artist and was selling, but due to injury and illness and injury I've had a 5-7 yr break, and am hoping to start again soon. I had surgery just over a yr ago to rehab my shoulder, and am doing better with my health.

Veronica Funk link

Hi Lesli...I feel for you. A few years ago I developed severe frozen should which required many months of physiotherapy, massage therapy and medical attention and is almost healed now after three years. Thank goodness my husband and children were such a help to me so I could continue to paint through the debilitating pain - I was also fortunate that it was my left shoulder that was affected and not my right painting shoulder.
