are saying about ...
Our Website and Inspiring ImagesYour website and email look extremely professional – and of course beautiful! Way to go Mary. Jen "The artwork put up is often healing for me when I take the time to respond to it. The art often supports the growth that I'm experiencing in my life. I know that this is what your site and work is all about. It's such a helpful tool. Since "we are all one" I figure that everyone who views the artwork on your site and responds is experiencing some sort of healing & growth. My ArtLandscapes of Oracle, ArizonaHello! HI Mary, You are amazing and help many people with your insight, wisdom, and love for painting with much expression. Hope all is well with you. Warmest Regards, Maria Dear Mary, What's new is I've been learning to play the harp for the last two years, part of a program with the Chalice of Repose, in contemplative musicianship and music thanatology. I began this before finding out in the last year that my husband became incapacitated with the horrendous disease called ALS and is now wheelchairbound and using a breathing machine 24/7, though indomitable spirit that he is, he continues to go to work. So it has been quite an emotional roller coaster and seeing your paintings and hearing from friends that I've gotta take good care of myself and get back to what gives me joy ie. painting, I feel inspired again. Bless you and your wonderful spirit. NW Hi Mary, It's me, Mary, your Elizabeth Park friend! Just wanted to let you know that I am so happy to be receiving your website emails to see what you are doing. My goodness! In such a short time you have taken quantum leaps! I just love the paintings you are doing now. The colors are so vivid and the way you capture the view is so alive. I am so proud of you. All the photographs of you seem to brim with your joyousness. I admire your adventure and bravery. The only earrings I wear are the angels I bought from you. I think of you every time they are worn. A lady at whole foods loved them. Do you still sell them? If yes, if you could tell me how to find them in your website, perhaps I could forward the info to her and get you a sale. (Winged Goddess website: http://www.storesonline.com/site/943436/product/Well-E186) The article from the newspaper was great. The Artist Way saved my life when I read it and did the exercises. Mary, doing the artist date and thinking about synchronicity (spelling?) made me soar with happiness. So I just wanted to say hi and congratulate you on your accomplishments. It was a gift crossing paths with you. All the best, Mary Dinneen Dear Mary, Your paintings are glorious! Your new life you have chosen

Dianne Wow, I am so impressed with your work and how you are inspired by your environment :.) makes me want to move to the same area :.) For the last 2 weeks we have been in a major crisis with our son; after many loaded e-mails with the school etc. I was relieved and refreshed to see your e-mail. Thanks so much; your paintings will be imprints upon my weary memory...revisited, and visualized to bring me comfort in the days to come! :.) A friend of mine lives in Flagstaff Ariz. is that near you? I sent her your e-mail so she could see your work too. She loves art and painting too. take care, and keep painting. Gayla Hi Mary, WOW! Your landscapes are wonderful! I was so surprised to see that you have gone south. But it seems to be very inspirational for you and I'm glad you are enjoying your time there. I too love landscapes, they are so healing for me somehow. Thank you for sharing your work, I have enjoyed viewing it very much. Leah Tillie Maslow Beautiful paintings, Mary! See you in February.

Painting
Mary ~ I got my painting up on the wall as soon as I got home and lo and behold it's not like anything that anyone said about it!!! It's exciting..............it's like pure ecstatic flames of passion and boundless energy and JOY!!!!! My girlfriend said it's so hot that if I don't get it under some cool glass soon it might just burn up the paper it's on!!! Ha! Ha! It could ignite the spiritually dead and excite the sexually dormant with just one look..............thanx again - I had fun!! Big Hug!!! Tara Bara boom boom.................. Anonymous
participants: “Mary--Thank you. I needed to do this more than I ever could have realized. Fabulous
learning experience. Again, thanks.” “It
... gave me the pathway to continue with pride and confidence.” “Experience
was a growing one.” “Safe
space to stretch beyond what’s comfortable and gentle push to do it.” "...contained more for me personally than I thought I might gain. I felt the experience as a whole helped me to connect with my painting (which isn’t finished) and connect to my gut. … Four hours is pretty quick, amazingly enough, and I could have painted longer.”
Coaching
"Mary Gravelle's gentle style and expansive techniques were integral to my success in making a significant life change. And she followed that life transition through to completion: She helped me to celebrate. The celebration -- as significant as the progression toward it -- was a powerful lesson in self-recognition and gratitude. But Mary is more than a coach. She holds the mirror that reflects your strength and wisdom; she fans the fire of faith when you think you've none left; and she gives you permission to live your truth, helping you to keep the promises you made to yourself long ago. She is the Keeper of Dreams, the Primer of
Possibility, and the Realization of Something More. HI Mary, I loved your class Igniting you intention I took I think three years or more ago. Just wanted you to know that I still feel the positive effects to this day that the class taught me. You are amazing and help many people with your insight, wisdom, and love for painting with much expression. Hope all is well with you. Warmest Regards, MariaMary, I gained so much ground through the igniting series and value the depth to which you encouraged me to go. One of the paintings in the show is based on a sketch that I did with an intention statement in our December meetings. I am very grateful for your companionship along my journey and hope that you feel proud of your part in bringing my life forward. Love, Allison Harkins ....Mary, as a post-script to my igniting work...I bought the book by Mike Hernaki and have started reading that. What a great inspiration and also what a great fit into so many passages I wrote during our 28 days together!! "Are you willing to do whatever it takes..." my goal currently is to begin doing illustration work and working on a children's book, (or two). There is a class at MCC in continuing ed. on writing and illustrating children's books that I am GOING TO REGISTER FOR! Being willing to do whatever it takes for this 4 week course has meant for me opening my mouth and asking my employer if I can rearrange my schedule, (the class meets Tuesday mornings), they said "yes". My next "doing whatever it takes step" is signing up and sending in my money. I am very excited. I don't know if I could have had the inspiration for my stories or the added intention of moving forward with this dream of writing/illustrating a book if I hadn't taken the "Igniting" workshop with you. I truly feel as if another door is opening. Now I just have to walk through it. Thank you!

Allison Goodman"I found the process to be profound and gained many insights
into myself from the Igniting process. The drawings really do
talk to you if you listen and will give you messages that you
need to hear. Perhaps even some that you don't WANT to hear, but
must. ... The igniting session gave me a feeling of power and direction." Website: http://pages.ivillage.com/agoodman02 http://pages.ivillage.com/agoodman02 Mary
Kay McDermott .... Kudos
For Wisdom Painting! (Igniting Your Intention)
Who would’ve thought that picking up a blue crayon
after breakfast could lead to such inspiration and insight? The steps that
Mary Gravelle’s Wisdom Painting Process (Igniting Your Intention)
incorporate make the practice of “picking up the blue crayon,” a truly
meaningful exercise. I feel the Wisdom Painting (Igniting Your Intention)
class has opened my creative channels. It has helped me to better know
myself, and where my heart yearns to go. Author of The Bridesmaid's Survival Guide
Beth Sax ....I participated in my
first Mary Gravelle Igniting Your Intention session in September 2001. My sister
had raved about her recent session which helped her to accomplish one big
intention in life -- starting a family -- she got pregnant! Mary Gravelle is the perfect leader for the
Igniting session. She trusts her intuition to guide the group in a quiet and
sometimes quirky way. Mary is a combination of wise woman, art teacher, coach,
and therapist.
