Lindsay Gibson

Making art rejuvenates me and Focusing replenishes me. The language of Focusing allows for all of us to make a solid connection with the creative wellspring of our aliveness. The flavour of my Focusing is infused with a reality affirming earthiness and a gentle touch of artistic licence.
