Moving Toward Individual and Social Change by Experimenting with Color and Form in Painting Sunday, March 1, 2026, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. To Register: Email lydialeighclarke@posteo.net
No matter our responsibilities in life, we have to take care of ourselves, physically, emotionally and metaphysically. Inner conscious movement in the imaginative realm is imperative to developing all of our qualities and skills.
Painting with color can open up worlds within us, helping us to get to know our true selves without judgement. The questions that arise are rich in diversity. Which colors amI drawn to? Which forms speak to me? Do all forms have borders? Are there liquid forms that move and change during our experiences? Painting enables us to experiment with and explore these ideas while observing our inner wanderings.
Yes, in order to know ourselves, as well as others, we must wander with curiosity, examining our needs, strengths, certainties and uncertainties. The more we know ourselves, the more we can respect and appreciate the differences we experience in the other. In this course we will explore the colors and forms that enliven us. We want to expand our inner world beyond the limitations of words.

Wir haben unser Innerstes
ausgebuddelt
angetastet
gehört
gestreichelt
und geliebt
mit den Widersprüchen
die uns nahe sind
das Schimmernde
in der Weite gesehen
die Stimme
wird in meinen Kugelschreiber gelegt.
Mein Körper,
mein lebendiger Körper
muss warten,
schweigen,
die Energie verwandeln
in denkende Worte,
die mit Stille umgeben.
after the winter solstice
and candlemas
it’s been a mild winter so far
biking under blue skies
already
not as a must
but because the crows are gathering
calling and dancing in prenuptial rites
over the newly plowed fields
robins appear again searching for worms
throwing wet leaves aside
digging frantically
like dogs
if we can’t forgive
then we’re forever bound to the past
move on through the seasons
from light to dark and back again
and smell the plowed earth
