Bobbie Stuart, visionary artist and writer, spiritual counselor and teacher, holds a BFA from the Art Institute of Chicago and an MA from Chicago's Columbia College, where she was a faculty member for more than 20 years. She is a woman grown wise and intimately connected to spirit through a life of challenging and amazing experiences combined with extensive spiritual study and practice. Bobbie joins sacred healing practices to visionary outcomes in various modes of transformative work.
Bobbie's intuitive, creative, and teaching abilities reflect decades of maturation through evolving forms of healing and transformational studies. In 1970 Bobbie undertook formal studies in meditation with the monks of the Ramakrishna Vedanta Society that continued for 11 years. Over the years she has received many levels of initiation and training in classical hatha yoga, Tibetan Buddhist teachings, East Asian qi-energy practices, and she is a trained and gifted healer in multiple traditions such as Reiki, MariEl and other ancient and contemporary systems.
Bobbie's artwork is inspiring, passionate, and evocative of the multiverse of spiritual dimensions. She has exhibited in the US and internationally and her work is widely collected. Through her teaching, she has applied her transformative creative process in many universities, arts organizations and museums, and human development centers in the U.S. and abroad, including Naropa University in Colorado, the London-based Skyros Center of the Greek Islands, and the Heartland Spa, Center for Integrative Medicine, Oasis Center, and Infinity foundation in Chicago.
As a visionary artist, I feel through color, form and motion, playing with the miraculous unleashing through my gypsy soul. The universe speaks to me and I express this cosmic essence through the prism of my imagination.
As a spiritual teacher, I consider myself a vehicle for creative energy. When I approach an individual or group to lead an experience, the important thing to me is that a placed is touched in each person; a place often guarded and unavailable, but always present beneath limiting beliefs. Through the re-experiencing of the basic creative impulse, we ignite that dormant creative flicker and experience life with a fullness, an appreciation of beauty in all forms. We grow to encompass yet another dimension where we live fully and consciously, conveying our truth and innermost world. We then become captivated by our playful spirit, our hearts shine, and we enter into a state of lighthearted gratitude…we become our own best treasure. Now that's contagious!
