"Revisiting it in Vishen's class is giving me goosebumps"

This is really freaky. In the mid-eighties, I had a wake-up call to leave my cozy New York life and move to Japan. In the nineties, I had an artistic awakening in my mid-thirties and became an exhibiting intuitive artist almost overnight. In the 2000s I began teaching my approach to intuitive drawing as it had never been done before--through juxtaposition with a deck of my original cards. By the 2010s I had established an art center in Tokyo to teach these methods. Then in 2017 on a visit to Israel, I knew that I wasn't going back to Japan despite leaving behind a thriving art community and even my son. Thirty years in Tokyo and I had to walk away. A month later both my children joined me in Israel and the Japanese students became a beautiful ongoing online community. I'd forgotten that I had read the Silva Method many many decades ago. Revisiting it in Vishen's class is giving me goosebumps. When I first read the book I had nobody to bounce ideas off. Now I'm an art teacher that actually unwittingly may be teaching his methods. I will soon find out as this course progresses. Unbelievable!
