In this episode I'm speaking with artist Katie Swatland about the importance of making time to create stillness and connect to the creativity that lives within. After years of crafting her art, Katie found herself far from the initial spark that inspired her to set out on the journey to learn to paint in the first place. She was disconnected from her own internal compass, and wished to reconnect with the sacred space within and finally bring together a collection of paintings that had been living in her imagination. Katie knew that if she were able to create from a sacred space, something drastic had to be done. So she began a journey inward. She turned her phone off, put up an automatic ‘out of office’ reply on her email, withdrew from social media, friends, family and colleagues, and focused solely on her art and allowed herself time to explore without distraction or outside influence. Think Eat, Pray, Love at home! Today, Katie has re-opened her studio doors, and is sharing her complete collection, ‘Alchemy Visions.’

As she brings the final three paintings into being, the reasons why she felt so passionate to dedicate herself to the creation of this collection will be revealed. Her hope is that they may offer a contribution, even in the smallest way, that will prove helpful to others. Katie believes, and I agree, they we are all in this journey of life together. Her hope is that her work will contribute in a way to benefit the greater whole. You can follow Katie, and be inspired, on her Instagram account and Facebook, and watch her work in progress on YouTube.
