Planting Seeds of Support
Straight to the Heart
Harvesting the transformational power of art as a metaphor.
Our Mission
To offer artistic and therapeutic opportunities in a safe space that are heart-focused and soul-centered, for people to transform and heal on many levels, starting from within.
Making art allows us to honor and reframe broken dreams and unpleasant memories of life experiences, and see and celebrate them with a new perspective.
Our art classes and workshops require no previous art experience or creative skill-level. Expressive art-making as an act of self-care supports mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being.
Infused with educational components and carefully designed around themes and objectives, activities could include intuitive painting, collaging/mixed-media, art journaling/altered books, sculpturing w/found objects, mandala making, crafting paper maché bowls, creating soul stories/cards, and more.
Experience titles are customizable. For ideas, see our previous experiences.

CELEBRATING THE LIFE & ART OF GERALD J. FERLICK
Where Creativity Becomes Connection, and Memory Continues to Bloom
There are lives that quietly illuminate the world — Gerry’s was one of them.
An artist, a caregiver, and a gentle spirit, his paintings carry the language of trees, sunlight, and soul.
The collection now held at Blooming Peace arrived almost by grace, entrusted with love, loss, and the hope of continuing what Gerry began. His work invites us to see differently — to stand in the presence of mystery, resilience, and the sacred ordinary.
As his trees reach upward and his sunflowers turn toward light, we glimpse a legacy that cannot be forgotten — creativity rooted in compassion, still blooming.
