Monika Kretschmar
InnerVoiceDrawing.com

Monika Kretschmar, Ph.D., has a professional background in Tibetan/Buddhist studies and has lived for ten years in Nepal under the auspices of outstanding Buddhist masters. She developed InnerVoiceDrawing in 1996 out of her understanding in the Eastern view that deeper knowledge is an integral part of our human existence. While she underwent personal hardships at this time with many open questions but no answers, InnerVoiceDrawing emerged as a refreshing discovery that we have a sound tool of guidance right at hand. It only takes a regular sheet of paper, a basic set of crayons or colored pencils, an open mind, and─once learned─not more than a few minutes to come to an advice that is both meaningful and works in our highest interest. Inner Voice Drawing is a conduit to the wisdom from within, to our own unconscious. It begins where the rational mind ends. It is a blending of art therapy, inner spiritual guidance, and divination. Inner Voice Drawing can be used on a personal level to retrieve answers to all questions of life as well as an artistic tool to draw from our most authentic, creative self.

Monika now lives in Upstate New York, where she teaches Inner Voice Drawing on an individual basis and in workshops. She also uses InnerVoiceDrawing as a basis for her artwork with the artistic goal to combine humor with wisdom that will joyfully connect the viewer with his/her own deeper self. She exhibits regularly throughout the Hudson Valley.
