PAMALA S. DEAN
The Incredible Journey of Explorations, Healings, and Artistic Expressions
  |
 Health issues and other life changes have made it necessary to transition my journey to new adventures. During the past two years, I was gradually loosing strength in my upper body, a frightening experience that stole away my ability to sculpt. While seeking answers from doctors, I watched my body deteriorate, as others cared for needs I could no longer meet unaided. Art remained a vital resource, essential to my life and healing process, and I continued my art journeys with explorations in various drawing and painting media. Later, I missed the 3-D quality of sculpture, and began experimenting with multi-media collage combinations.
I never gave up seeking the causes of my losses, and was finally rewarded with answers. I am now getting stronger every day, and have begun making small sculptures again. I thank all of you for your prayers during these dark days, especially those who have helped bring me back to the LIGHT. You can continue to follow my healing explorations and integration of body, mind, and spirit through nutrition and art within these pages. Upon closing Dragonfly Journeys, we had originally thought we would keep the site open only to send our family and friends to Karen's new Taos Dragonfly site. Then I decided the name of the site spoke to my need to continue towards healing my body and soul. The name continues to hold meaning for me for the following reasons: Taos: because this is where I reside with my artist friend and partner in crime and love, joy, and other fun capers. Art: because I believe in the healing power of art, and that creativity should be a sacred practice of us all. Retreat: because I need to retreat and heal my body and soul through my art process. |
Peace, Love, Joy, and Serenity, NOW!
