#55 Joanna Read: Emergence

In this Episode, Carl Paoli talks to Artist Joanna Read, who believes art can awaken and transform the viewer and the creator into dreaming of a new reality. Joanna says that connecting with art- becoming present to, receiving, and noticing what an image, sound, poem, person, or place in nature elicits in the mind, body, and emotions as well as the act of expressing through art: utilizing art as a vehicle for practice, a tool for reprogramming false narratives and affirming a new inner reality through inspired action and devotional commitment, continue to be profoundly transformative anchor points within Joanna's life's emergence. Sharing Joanna's practice is an integral step in the cycle of creation: offering the fruits of these labors of love helps her knowledge-hungry mind find greater reverence and appreciation for a process rooted in a place that feels familiar yet not fully comprehendible. Joanna's awe for this process is deepened whenever a client or customer expresses how an image or teaching that feels so alive within Joanna is also felt within them and experienced as a shared resonance or offering of "Soul sustenance."
