Have you ever heard of life’s obstacles described as mountains? The classic metaphor explains that you have to climb the mountain to get to the top, and once you’re at the top, the obstacle is completely done. Basically, a ruthless struggle of the uphill climb to freedom. Well, that analogy leaves out some important considerations.

1. Not all obstacles can be left behind once the problem is solved.
2. Some obstacles evolve with circumstances.
3. There is always more than one way to combat life’s obstacles.

What if overcoming obstacles didn’t have to be an uphill battle? What if we looked at these obstacles like boulders in a garden? Each person’s life is a garden and we all have boulders in our gardens. They come in all shapes and sizes. And, just as boulders have variety, so do the possible solutions. We can paint our boulders any way we want, and in doing so, we turn our boulders into works of art.

Art is healing and therapeutic. This book contains art prompts to offer you a chance to paint some of your own boulders. Using your creative mind to help you process, overcome and heal!

What if we could paint boulders instead of climbing mountains? Let’s get painting!
