Patti Vick, MFA
I am a meditation teacher, Open Studio Process facilitator, and artist. As the founder of Color Wheel Mindfulness, my goal is to support you in connecting with and trusting your creative voice as a source of wisdom and compassion. I am passionate about creating space for communal art making and self-reflection. In community we support each other in personal growth, learn from each other’s stories, and weave a fabric of connection and healing.
My background: For the last eleven years I have taught process-based art classes at Open Studio Project, an art and social service non-profit that promotes social-emotional learning through the arts. I am authorized to teach awareness and compassion-based practices through the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program (MMTCP), a two year professional training program created by Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach. I received a BA in Anthropology at Colorado College and an MFA in Visual Communication from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
I welcome all bodies into this shared space—All genders, orientations, races, ages, religions, abilities, and economic backgrounds. I am a white, cisgender female and use the pronouns she/her.
Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.
