Welcome to Soul Art Gallery!
I made the choice to create this virtual Soul Art Gallery (SAG) website in 2000 to provide positive awareness and feedback for my creative work... Then in 2004 when I posted my 2003 Camino de Santiago experiences the focus and intention throughout that year and onward made a bend in the road to also include my philosophy and life experience.
My interest in the Arts began at an early age. The idea of using Art, Dance and Music as mediums to express a particular emotion or thought has always been a fascination. This led to the development and creation of my Soul Art and Collage Workshops.
I have always intermingled with a variety of individuals from every walk of life and I feel because I have never been drawn in by any alluring quality that somebody or something possesses by virtue of seeming much more exciting, romantic, or fashionable than ordinary people or things has helped me with discernment.

A PERSONAL STATEMENT
Caitlyn & EM Christmas 2004
I have always wanted to fly "Wild and Free" like a bird and what I discovered is we are all free we just don’t realize it and what I really always wanted was freedom to be me. I love to create… taking time being in nature, to play and have a bit of fun. "Fun" for me! I am open… living life to the fullest. I’ve learned that age doesn’t matter. Choices aren’t set in stone; we are always free to choose again… to begin anew, to heal what requires healing, to create what brings us joy and peace.
I no longer limit myself nor do I place any restrictions on my goals and dreams. I live for my approval, I take pleasure in knowing my opinion and what I consider most important is based upon my own experience. I look at each day as a gift in gratitude and love. I get to choose how I want to experience it being and doing what brings me joy and peace.

The Camino de Santiago is very individual. It embraces life with integrity, compassion and joy. To walk it with intent and an open heart is like a pebble dropped in a pond... the ripples will touch the farthest shores of consciousness. It is an adventure that leads one to the center of their soul.
Each person that travels it brings back different feelings and lessons; I believe we each have our own lessons to learn so it is important to honor the process in whatever form it takes.
There is no end... no grand finally! Just like Santiago didn't mark the end for me... rather it marked the beginning a shift to become whole; to heal at all levels mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Life goes on with infamous possibilities and "We the People" light the way.
