How IntheFlow
painting works
With no thought in mind, Diana applies
layers of acrylic paint to gesso-prepared paper, playing with
colours. When this feels complete, she "sees into" the painting from
all four directions to see whether the painting is to remain as an
abstract — an expression of energy. Or perhaps she finds beings —
animal, plant, human — in the colours. Diana then chalks in these
beings, beginning a relationship with them. Finally, she brings the
beings into form by painting them in detail.
Commissioned
Paintings
Diana enjoys doing IntheFlow
Paintings on commission. The process is the same as described above,
except that instead of having no thought in mind, she "holds" the
person in her heart and mind while she puts paint on paper.
Workshops and
Classes
Like other forms of meditation and
painting, IntheFlow painting can be done on your own or in a
group. Both ways are of benefit to spiritual and creative growth.
With sixteen years of facilitating
groups in healing, creativity and transformation, Diana offers
workshops on IntheFlow Painting. Click here for more information on these

Diana's
Comments
"For me,
IntheFlow Painting is a way to paint from the inside-out.
When I paint in this way, I feel directly connected with my soul and
with the Source. My soul sings as I paint! I feel like I am dancing
with divine energies, allowing them to move through my body and my
hand. I feel free and exhilarated. I love never knowing what will
appear in the paint, and then seeing in multi-dimensions as I play
with paint on paper. IntheFlow painting is my favourite form
of spiritual practice, a powerful way to allow the unconscious to
become conscious, and to bring beauty to the world."
