Creative Support
Process and project support for curious minds of all levels of experience and expression.
Working with Darla for this year, has been so freeing creatively, instructive mentally and essential physically. The integration of my physical, mental, and creative selves into one creative being – and discovering the texture and possibilities within this being makes me a more authentic, centered, and confident artist. I was in the studio painting last week in an absolutely different headspace. no critic. I was choosing what I liked. It was revolutionary and curious and kind. It is slower than I used to work and it’s good. So good.

Meet Your Trusted Collaborator.
Your Voice. Your Growth.
Your Unique Expression.
Expansion creates its own momentum.
As an award winning Interdisciplinary Artist and Educator for three decades, I’m bringing my full arsenal of experience to guide and partner with you to flourish, deepen and explore your work.
We’ll dive in to discover new frameworks and pathways that expand your ideas and your process.
This also extends to you and how you maintain and sustain yourself as a creative human in all realms. You are not a compartmentalized being.
All forms of work are body based, you are the root and the generator. Somatic practices may also be integrated to regulate, sharpen and encourage the flow.
What Pilots An Idea – How Do You Get At It, Wrangle it, Illuminate it?
~ You want to revive your creative heart beat.
~ Your interests are broad and you want to find focus.
~ You’re ready to tell your story but not sure where to start.
~ You crave feedback, a conversation space.
~ You’re interested with the translation of ideas to a new medium and need guidance.
I Will Meet You Where You are.
Our work together is designed to support constructive and rigorous encounters for you to:
-
find a pathway into your own work
-
see and create differently, immediately
-
identify, analyze and express structure and meaning in multiple forms
-
create original devised work
-
read, interpret and jockey ideas across platforms
-
connect and filter your work through a variety of mediums, ideas and practices.
-
acquire increased flexibility and dexterity for encountering, interpreting and developing ideas
- engage in the arts to increase listening skills and comprehension through structured and dynamic experience.
The Right Conversation Can Change Everything.
Dynamic support is on the way:
Illuminating and augmenting your creative process, project development, a thesis, a proposal, a work in progress, a brain storming session, a custom online class, or ongoing mentoring and process support.
You may be:
- frustrated with working in isolation, you need creative interaction and support, new frameworks to generate material
- desiring a conversation space for creative blocks or fatigue
- in the throes of a project or process and need a critical eye, a collaborator
- wanting to maximize your operating system – all work is body based after all – Body Work Practices may also be integrated if desired
