Profile
- What's Your Favourite Way To Create?
- I love to draw, collage and paint intuitively/spontaneously. I also am a keeper of journals of every kind, writing, dreams, poetry, collage, inspiration, drawing and watercolor
- Favourite Artists (in ANY creative medium)
- I love artists on the intuitive path...Painter Michele Cassou, Dancer Gabrielle Roth, Collage Artist, Seena B. Frost
- Greatest Creative Moment You've Had?
- After my daughter was born, my body started to speak to me. I began to go down to my studio at night and paint and draw spontaneously. My paintings would speak to me without words. Sometimes I would paint all night. I was a gallery artist at the time and it felt so good to just express myself without having to think of an end product. It was at that point that art became transformational for me.
- What's Your Biggest Creative Dream?
- To write a book about my creative process and have it published.

Your collage journal sounds interesting. What do you do in it? Do you do large collages and writing or just collage?
lots of love from susan in australia
Technique just comes intuitively. It is so freeing not to have to worry about, composition, color choices, subject, proportions,perspective...I love not having to make decisions in the paintings, and not planning anything, but to just paint through them...I get a lot of mud paintings also, but as Cassou and a member reminded me recently, the mud periods are temporary and are sort of like a clearing out, or cleansing process needed to evolve.
It is cool to go back and look at them! There are some x-rated paintings that still shock me! The finished product is always a surprise! Is it that way for you also?
Have you posted any of your intuitive painting on CCS yet?
I will have to do some perusing... You already know that I think your collages are awesome!!!
What is your preferred medium? Collage or painting?
Please don't be intimidated by our good looks! We're all just really nice folks who love encouraging others on their journey!
Yes Michelle Cassou books have been my painting bibles over the past ten years.
With out reading those books these paintings might never have been created:

It would really be pleasure to see your intuitive paintings also! Will you be posting them at CCS?
I have a huge history with the Cassou process...I love her books, her artwork and her way of guiding painters to find their own authentic imagery! I am looking forward to seeing some of your paintings, Shelley!
Each collage is an awesome adventure, a curious dream, a love affair with image!
Bravo Shelley! So glad you have joined us at CCS...your work will add lots of extra pizazz to already verry pizazzy community! Welcome aboard! Sincerely Camille
