Thanks for stopping by. My website is dedicated to inspiring women to live a more fulfilling and creative Third Stage of life. All too often our creative dreams languish with the responsibilities of life. But in our Third Stage, art making can open the way for magic because it takes us beyond limitation and into transformation. Art is a potent practice for brain health, joy, passion and a deeper connection with Self.

I'm Barbara Boren. As long as I can remember I've been an art lover- both as a student and teacher. I now offer women exercises and art activities designed to connect you with your creative source to rekindle (or find!) your passion. I left my art and language teaching position years ago for a career in business. But after many years in that work, I was dissatisfied and felt disconnected. I missed the creativity and excitement of art making. So once again, I dove into my art practice scribbling, drawing, collaging, and painting. Through these practices I found my way back home- to myself- my essence.
Whether recalibrating after leaving a career, experiencing the initial sense of loss of an empty nest, the end of a relationship, or dealing with the death of a spouse, I've experienced these states and it's always art practice that pulls me through both uncertainty and grief. I know from experience that creativity is a great healer which can knit parts of us back into wholeness. This can lead to exciting growth and transformation.
Today I am living my best life, and I would like this for you too! I would be honored to be your guide as you walk the creative path. Over the last several years I've been exploring and experimenting with different materials and techniques and sharing what I learn. This is one of my favorite activities.

What might have seemed a luxury to many of us in our working years, at retirement can become a vital piece of healthy and joyful living. Increasing data shows that as we move past middle age, adults are more frequently embracing creativity to enhance their days. Especially interesting is the fact that while contributing to overall well being, evidence is mounting to support a link between creative activities and memory retention.
