Our first initiative – Artists’ Circles of Caring – aims to cultivate a shared objective and spark dialogue (come join us! – hop onto our Calm Unity Practices Group Facebook page to find out more). Together, we’ll build the foundation of C.U.P. using a collaborative approach that enables each of us to align on three levels: intrapersonal, interpersonal, and global. If you’re a curious creative who enjoys working on your own, as well as creating with others, you’ll feel right at home participating in Artists’ Circles of Caring.
Our guide for this experience is LorriMarie Jenkins, a prolific artist and teacher who has produced over 500 instructional videos and earned an impressive following. You can access LorriMarie’s biography on our group Facebook page. We also recommend watching her video (also on our Facebook page) that demonstrates one approach to completing the circles – such fun!

The beauty of this exercise is that there are no “wrong” answers – in fact, we welcome differences in responses! You’ll know you’re in a creative groove when you embrace the messiness and complexity of the process – just trust that, with patience and perseverance, you will reach the other side. When you’ve reached this “far side”, you’ll experience contentment, joy and even bliss. You can then add to your life experience a deeper, more profoundly expressed self.
“I wouldn’t give a fig for the simplicity on this side of complexity; I would give my life for the simplicity on the far side of complexity.” ~ Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
We’re excited to embark on this journey with you.
Let’s lean into collaboration and develop a sound repertoire of Calm Unity Practices.
At C.U.P. we believe the journey is the destination.
