A view of Ecospiritual art is an invitation into celebrating and recognising the manifestation of the spiritual connection between human beings and the environment. The Creator's love and joy is found in creative prayerful experiences with nature. An invitation to opening up to intuitive natural resources, personal journeys, dreams and purposes

View of finding God Creatively Finding God in all things as a part of the ecosystem is a sacred gift in life. Creativity fits easily into the First Principle and Foundation of the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises. Ecospiritual art is life giving for each of our souls..
View of Creative Discernment Creativity and prayer with nature are dear playmates. As we open ourself up to the gospel, we see through Jesus’ eyes. Contemplating on Jesus’ life helps contemplate on our lives. As we create in any way at one with nature, we grow in awareness of what is drawing us away from or towards the Creator. Ecospiritual art contemplation is a form of Ignatian prayer by discerning the truth of the creative spirits flowing through meditation and imaginative contemplation.
View of Creative Reflection Our creativity impels us to reflect on all prayer experiences from different perspectives. We notice what we are experiencing [environmental, physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually]. Where is the truth of the creative spirit? Questions are stimulated. Mysteries revealed. Ecospiritual contemplative arts is congruent with Ignatian principle of reviewing daily experiences of finding God in nature, which includes all that lives on our planet..
View of the Creative process When creating artwork, we participate in a transforming universal venture. When we create spontaneously, we come from a wiser place, a deep inner resource and a connection within the ecosystem. Shapes, colours and lines are interpreted into new awareness and learnings. The invisible becomes visible.
Birds Eye View with ecospiritual contemplative arts is an inspiring way to join in action throughout the world for God’s purpose, caring for his creation, earth, our common home..
View of Creative Detachment While creating, we trust in the creative process and not being concerned about or controlling the end product. The outcome naturally unfolds, as we trust in the Holy Spirit at work. With spiritual freedom, I patiently let go and let God create though me, for his design and grace to be developed. Ecospiritual contemplative arts allows detachment from personal expectations and outcomes, surrendering to the power of God's will in our life together.
View of Inclusivity for everyone Immersed in the creative process, we become true to who God has created us to be, our unique selves. The creation of artwork is an experience between God and each one of us. It’s not about being right or wrong even though our inner critic attempts to make detrimental judgements to the contrary. Ecospiritual contemplative art provides a time and space for us all to express ourselves creatively without judgement.
View of Creative and Spiritual Freedom All types of creative expression with nature can be used including music, drama, movement, poetry, storytelling, writing as well as all environmentally friendly or recycled visual arts materials - nature, sand, clay, paint, sculpture, drawing, etc.. There is no pressure to have any artistic ability or to follow any techniques, rules or conformity because the focus is on meaning making with our internal and external connections.
Spiritual freedom opens us up to viewing and experiencing God’s love and graces more deeply within the sacredness of mother earth. We can create a resourceful ecospiritual contemplative art practice in your everyday lives together.
