Joyful Purpose: Frida's Trunk

Frida's Trunk

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Marianne Williamson quote

This was a quote that inspired our weekend ....

Lucky me I was fortunate enough to spend 3 days with the fabulous, kind, humble, witty and generous Lynne Perrella! Please see the slide show to view the incredible weekend. The workshop was called Frida's Trunk and was based on a trunk of Frida Kahlo's clothes that were recently found. We explored the two sides of Frida - the flowery, kitchy side and the dark side. As you can see the work produced was just to quote Lynne "delicious" .... click on "view all images" to see photos closer up
