Creative Self Discovery

Welcome to the ArtWomb

A supportive space for creative expression, healing and spiritual connection

IMG_5710_edited_edited.jpg

I’m Lisa O’Connor, and I’m so honored you’ve found your way here.

​

For over 30 years, I’ve been on a path of deep self-awareness—a journey that began with a spark in my 20s and unfolded into a full-bodied devotion to creative and spiritual exploration. Along the way, I discovered that creativity isn’t just something we do—it’s a sacred way of being. It’s a tool for healing, transformation, self-discovery, and deep self-acceptance. To me, creativity isn’t about mastering technique—it’s about presence, expression, and uncovering the wisdom within.

​

Through this journey, I found the mystic within and began to understand the greater purpose of my life. My creative path has taken many forms: SoulCollage®, Shamanic Reiki, Internal Family Systems, Imago therapy, intuitive and process painting, photography, silversmithing, astrology, meditation, kirtan, and even improv comedy. Each modality has helped me access deeper truths, heal the unseen, and reclaim parts of myself that were waiting to be remembered.

of rubies & bathe in the splendor
of your own light" - Rumi

Whether I’m crafting with my hands, capturing a fleeting moment behind the lens, or walking beside a woman on her own path of spiritual exploration, my work is always an invitation—to presence, to healing, and to awakening.

 

The ArtWomb was born from this personal journey. Rooted in the belief that everyone is inherently creative, I’ve created a safe, supportive environment for women to reconnect with their inner voice and explore creative expression as a powerful path to personal growth, emotional resilience, and spiritual connection.

​

This space isn’t about producing perfect art—it’s about the process. It’s about showing up, letting go of self-judgment, and allowing creativity to lead. Many women come in saying they’re “not artistic or creative,” but once they realize the focus is on exploration rather than outcome, they’re often surprised by how freeing and joyful it feels. Releasing the pressure to create something “museum-worthy” opens the door to play, experimentation, and self-discovery

SoulCollage®

SoulCollage® combines creativity, intuition, & art allowing one to connect with your inner wisdom. Using magazine images, scissors and glue sticks, create your own unique deck of cards, with each card representing a different aspect of your self. This simple process fosters personal growth & emotional healing encouraging one to tap into their own intuition.

Women's Circles are sacred gatherings where women come together to explore their spiritual paths through creative expression, ritual, & reflection. These intimate circles nurture the soul & awaken inner wisdom, encouraging healing & authentic connection.

Art Journaling

Art journaling is a creative journey of self-expression that uses painting, collage, drawing, mixed media, & writing to explore personal landscapes. It celebrates individuality, encourages exploration without judgment, & focuses on the process rather than the final product. No artistic experience is required—just an open heart & willingness

to play.

These offerings are designed to awaken:

Intuition

As a Creativity Coach, I work with clients of all ages, offering a nonjudgmental, holistic space to explore and express themselves through art. My approach goes far beyond making art—it's about using the creative process as a portal to growth, healing, emotional well-being, and deeper self-awareness. I help individuals quiet their inner critic and embrace the truth that creativity isn’t a rare talent—it’s an innate human ability that flourishes when we release self-doubt and the need for external validation.

​

These immersive experiences provide a sacred space for reflection, healing, self-empowerment, and connection. From SoulCollage® sessions to Art Journaling Circles and Women's Circles, each offering is designed to nourish your spirit, ignite your creativity, and awaken your soul’s wisdom.
