Ebb & Flow of Life's Journey
featured heARTist Mrs. Patsy Tidwell-Painton
Even though Patsy's college degree was in Business Administration, she has always been intrigued with crafts. Working with her hands was her goal rather that sitting in an office. Patsy evolved from a kindergarten administrator to the manager of St Andrews Episcopal Church Annual Tea Room & Gift Shop that featured handmade gifts, paintings and crafts. Under her guidance, the charity earned over $30,000. This experience proved to her that art and business could be combined.
In her pursuit of an education in art, Patsy began classes at the College of Charleston studying under William Halsey and Corrie McCallum. Discovering that there was no art supply store in the city, she opened a full service art supply store, a frame shop and an art gallery that featured locally and nationally known artists. Later on, she sponsored workshops and weekly classes for artists in the area. As Patsy worked on her own painting style, she financially contributed to College of Charleston exhibits and served on the board of the Halsey Gallery (now the Halsey Institute of Contemporary Art).
Patsy was dedicated to art and and her business that provided so much for the city and its artists. Her many commitments made it difficult for her to find her own voice in art when suddenly , life as she knew it came to an end. In 2007, an aneurysm in her brain ruptured, leaving her physicians believing Patsy would not recover. After many operations and a two-month hospital stay, she began to surprise everyone with her determined recovery. Miraculously, after regaining her strength, she began living a different life. Selling her business and pursuing her art education, she became a successful full-time artist.
During her recovery, in Charleston and in Cape Cod, Patsy used Sudoku puzzles to assist in recovering her memory and focus. She became even more aware of the miracle that was her new life. She woke each day knowing she would spend it creating.
Throughout these years since regaining her health, Patsy has shown her work in the Mary Martin Gallery, Low Country Artists Gallery in Charleston and in many other galleries, libraries and museums in South Carolina, WellFleet, Ma., Orleans, Ma., Sotheby's Gallery in Orleans, Ma., The Creative Art Center in Chatham, Ma. and the Cultural Center of Cape Cod in South Yarmouth, Ma.
Patsy's paintings contain the elements of the Soduku puzzles that helped her heal. They also include a celebration of movement and are touched with an awareness of the gift of time. Patsy says "Life is a puzzle... I invite you to master it and learn your own puzzle's meaning."

The Art of My Energy
The heART of the Energy
Some years ago I started this little thingy in my home called the ART of the ENERGY. What this was was a communal gathering of sorts. An initiated open house where we would get to explore and spend time just “Soul Diving”.
We would have others in the community speak on what they do and showcase their energies. I felt this was super important as there are a lot of folks out there who are amazing healers living right amongst all of us. There are seers’, visionaries, oracles, artists, operators, supporters and those with an innate curiosity to learn how to use their own gifts and really really want to lean deep into themselves.
I wanted to know how those that title themselves a “Practitioner” worked and moved. I wanted to know what those same movements would look and feel like within myself and my own Soul’s Mastery as I too, moved through deep layers of healing and transcendence.
There have been times in my life where I have for real cursed my gifts and I couldn’t shift my own self out of it.
I have wanted to quit. Run. I have wanted to spit, and I have allowed myself to completely come undone… over and over again. This is no game to win. Just a journey within yourself. An exploration of what Felt might Feel like if fear, money, expectation and relations weren’t a matter. It doesn’t matter who wears the hat today. What if what you pray for becomes your chore. Or better yet, your reality.
Sure there are a few laws, and legalities, but the totality of what you are capable of is beyond WHEW.
Are you ready to step into your own Energy.
What does she sound like. How does she feel. Can you distinguish between safe and false energy appear real.
The art is in how you are feeling. When you are peeling back the layers of your chaos and Moss medicine is weaving her magic. Where tragic becomes beauty and grand babies and their cutie pie smiles are abundant.
This art never gets redundant.
We are meant for more.
What’s YOUr name?

Soul Dive
Soul Dive is how I dive into my black. Soul Dive are the moments of lack that stack us against all odds. Soul Dive is finding the yod that feels like your center. Enter here. Clear knowing. Clear seeing. Clear feeling. Clear hearing and clearing the near death clefts that have kept us from greatness. Awakness.
