Whilst yoga frees my body and mind - creating art definitely feeds my soul. 

 

Long before I'd even heard of a downward dog, I was always drawing, painting or making things. Mostly self-taught, I use mixed media - paint, inks, collage, charcoal... what ever I can get my hands on really.  

I have a little shed in the bottom of my garden which is where I do most of my painting, and there's a sign on the door that states, 'To you it may only be a shed, but to me it's a sanctuary'.  And indeed it is.  When I'm lost in a painting, then it's like my own meditation.  I'm in the flow... hours go by and I'm blissfully unaware. 

Art is also my yoga.
