 Patsea Cobb, Artist
It was when I viewed Patsea’s recent works on the Spirit’s Journey Through Dying, that I knew she is the artist I’ve been looking for to lead workshops in Shamanic Art for The Center For Earth Light Healing.
Patsea’s free flowing expression of the precious moments when a spirit separates from her body, followed by the series of images Patsea has created expressing the spirit’s journey finding her way through the veils and into another reality, are so moving and insightful that they solicit a broad range of emotions and visions.
Patsea’s professional background includes being on the art faculty at Lesley College since 1982 and at Maine College of Art since 1998. She has taught Figure Painting at The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and was the Associate Professor of Drawing and Sculpture at The Art Institute of Boston in the 70’s and 80’s.  Among Patsea’s numerous pursuits and accomplishments have been the completion of illustrations for books on midwifery and obstetrics, and writing and illustrating two children’s books.
In letters from the Art Institute of Boston, Patsea is cited as having exceptional gifts as a creative artist as well as excelling in her skills as a teacher. Her accolades and references repeatedly refer to Patsea as warm, inviting, attentive, funny, engaging, and able to reach students with a varied degree of interests, abilities and learning styles.
Her experience in teaching courses for The True Blue Beginner make it possible for everyone, regardless of their level of art experience or skill, to seek knowing themselves and their shamanic expression and path through art.
Patsea has previously studied, and is also currently enrolled in, a course of shamanic study. She is also actively engaged in exploring art and shamanism, from the historical and the modern. She lives in Cape Elizabeth with her artist husband, David Campbell, their two daughters who are now off to college, and numerous 4-legged family members.
Please join me in welcoming her and our first Shamanic Art Workshop on May 17 & 18, 2008. |
