Women In The Arts
SoCo Modern Gallery’s latest exhibition, curated by Cori Teague, highlights power works by women artists from around the world.
Among the artists on display are works by Brandy Amstel from her “Being In The Flow” Series. Brandy’s art explores the coming together of creativity and spirituality. The “Being In the Flow” series continues to be an ever expanding journey into what it means to be in the flow. Working with clay as a medium allows for the studying of fluidity, curves and beauty while acknowledging the energy and resonance that creates alignment. For it is within the alignment that we find the ease and flow in life.

Sacred Expression Salon - JOY IS, BECAUSE I AM.
December 2020
JOIN US FOR A CONVERSATION ABOUT ONENESS.
December has become a month of reflection…It is when I set aside time to see how far I’ve come, what I’ve accomplished for the year, what I’ve overcome, where am I headed, and list all of the things that I am grateful for.
In a recent conversation, the statement, “Joy is, because I am.” fell out of my mouth as a piece of wisdom from high above. As I reflect on the quote, I realize that joy is a God quality and the statement can be arranged with any God quality that feels true. Peace is, because I am. Love is, because I am. Abundance is, because I am.
As we bridge the expansion of humanity from 2020 to 2021, I can’t help but feel in my bones that this is a very important time for us all to be alive and to help usher in a new level of Living in Love.
Join us for our next Sacred Expression Salon for a conversation to explore higher truths about our oneness and the role that we each play on the micro to the macro.
Sacred Expression Salon - STRENGTHENING INTUITION
November 2020
JOIN US FOR A CONVERSATION ABOUT INTUITION.
Intuition through the years has been a mysterious thing and as the journey has progressed and the collective consciousness expands…intuition is talked about more and more. Experts and articles have emerged with different perspectives on what intuition is, where it comes from and how to get more of it. I even wrote a free eBook in 2013. (Ten Areas To Gain Awareness That Will Change Your Life Forever)
I believe that we can all agree that 2020 has been an opportunity to evaluate our individual beliefs and truths. There have been times when I thought I had a handle on a topic or dilemma only to realize that was no longer the truth either. These continual uncoverings have made it necessary for me to be more adaptive AND more present.
As our society take the next leap into the 11/11 portal and embarks on the next chapter of our unfolding story, what is intuition from here and how do we apply the knowledge and wisdom from this point to expand to the next level.
Join us for our next Sacred Expression Salon for a conversation to explore intuition.
Sacred Expression Salon - PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND HOPE
October 2020
JOIN US FOR A CONVERSATION ABOUT PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND HOPE.
What comes to mind for you when you hear personal responsibility?
This has been a big part of my inquiry throughout the years on the road of awakening. The layers continue to open and expand.
As a participant in the 2009 Sedona Sweatlodge incident where my spiritual community was forever changed and three of our peers died, the media and many in the world brought a particular perspective of personal responsibility that many of us weren’t fully prepared for and that we have all had to navigate.
Art is a form of expression for me and most often serves as a reminder of a feeling that I want to bring forth. It gives power, peace and presence. The expression of hope in this piece reminds me that it is healthy to hope…healthy to trust…in myself and in my truth…
Let’s expand the conversation and share perspectives.
Sacred Expression Salon - CREATING EASE THROUGH ALIGNMENT
September 2020

Digging into responsibility, action, adventure, freedom and expression.
Let’s expand the conversation and share perspectives.
Sacred Expression Salon - OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT ZONE
August 2020
JOIN US FOR A CONVERSATION ABOUT BEING OUTSIDE THE COMFORT ZONE.
On the road… this month my husband and I loaded up the van (a.k.a. Van Helsing) and set off for the Pacific Northwest. There have been many experiences outside of my comfort zone for sure and many opportunities to look at how and who I want to be. While encountering people, businesses and state rules across the nation there have been moments to observe the differences and the similarities. Let’s expand the conversation from the micro to the macro.
Sacred Expression Salon - Bringing Safety, Love and Light Through Expression
July 2020
JOIN US FOR A CONVERSATION ABOUT SELF EXPRESSION.
The past few weeks have been amplified by the exploration of expression. We have all felt it at various levels and seen it unfold in the media. I have felt the pain and sadness AND I HAVE FELT THE SHIFT…There has never been a more important time for light workers to be on the planet to help bridge to more peace and love.
Through my own exploration…I feel more grounded in my truth and free to share my expression. A new level of freedom and joy has been unlocked. In our conversation this month, we will expand the conversation about the evolution of expression, how expression is healing and how we can be safety, love and light to the world.
