Notes on Self-Love.
December 12, 2020
Here are some love notes from this weekend’s outdoor art class at the Brave House. We gathered on the water at the Brooklyn Bridge and wrote messages (on cards and leaves!) to spread to people in the community. These are difficult times, we could all use a little love. Thank you Sami Giarratani for leading such a fun and beautiful workshop and to all the Brave Sisters who came by!

We learned how to set up cool, creative shots and then had so much fun playing around with photoshop, all while grooving to French African beats! Thank you Stephen Elliot for sharing your talent, time & imagination with us.

Another inspiring art class led by our soul sister Sami Giarratani. We learned how to transfer images using essential oils & we were able create messages of love, resistance and power. “Walls turned sideways are bridges.” - Angela Davis

Collaging.
September 10, 2019
Art class with our talented teacher & soul sister Samantha G. First we brainstormed all the things that are stressing us out and bringing negativity into our lives. Then we tore them up into tiny pieces and created beautiful collages with the pieces. Thank you for encouraging us to be authentic & to release and share our feelings through creativity!
