Capucines Boulevard Features Artist Joanne (Shayna Brachka) Farber 
 

Welcome to my studio, my name is Joanne Shayna Bracha Farber. Shayna Bracha means "beautiful blessing" and that is Hebrew and Yiddish together, and I am the creator of Holistic Art by Shayna Bracha. 

Holistic Art is dealing with the conceptual method of using all of your body, using the mind, body, spirit, the soul, and what I do is in the conceptual method.

I teach you how to let go, how to become empowered, how to overcome the obstacles that we all encounter in our life. I also teach you to express yourself in creativity, in the freedom of total self expression, and it's in the non-objective form of expression which comes from the school of Kandinsky. 

The type of art that I create is water colors and acrylic; a particular piece that I've done reflects my travels from Peru that I did this summer ... it reflects that experience as well as the idea of freedom of expression.

I often conduct workshops and what I try to do when I work with you and when I create is to unravel the knots, untie the knots, sometimes it's like the umbilical cords when we're born, we're still like tied to umbilical cords so it's sort of like unwinding that umbilical cord and getting it out into the ether and that is what I do.
 

As far as  working with you on a creativity level, we learn to use our voices in some toning.

I also came up with Harmony Fusion Wave Awareness, which I have trademarked, and what Harmony Fusion Wave Awareness is is sort of the umbrella of what holistic art is: finding your creativity finding out who you are, going beyond the crossroads, completing those circles that we have to complete in life, it's the karma thing...what I do is I help you push thru that, thru the creativity by painting, thru sound, thru any way I can get you to do...

When I teach you, it's to develop your own techniques so that it's your own and you own, it's your own creativity and it's not mine, I will give you the tools to do it such as different lessons and some lessons could be dealing with cirlces and shapes and focusing so you have focus and clarity ... I always end up dealing with connection because we are all connected in many different ways whether it's thru language, art or whatever connection it is. 

Music is an important factor for me and I have music that I enjoy working with, but when I use toning it's all about using your voice and when you use your voice you can use it in different ways, I choose to use a crystal bowl.
 
It opens up your third eye, depending where you're at, it opens up your heart and helps you to create, and it calms you down and centers you. 

So when I tone, when I teach you to do the same, there's like a harmonic effect and it gets us to a point where we can start creating and for me this is a way for me to get creative.   One of my muses is Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead, he's helped me thru a lot of times, so I like his music.  

I also teach to go beyond fear because fear is a challenge and we can't let fear overtake us. 

I'll teach you to open up your heart and to turn everything around because fear should not be a word in anybody's vocabulary.

Fear will be replaced by opening up your heart more to humanity and to who to you are and to finding out about compassion and to doing things on a different level, on of more of a compassionate level as far as your life, as far as business and teachign about dignity and respect within us. As for being an artist I feel that we represent to the world freedom of expression, so that we can let others learn too, I feel that we are like ambassadors to the world for humanity and that the ego should be set aside. We're there to help others and their creativity and to help keep the arts alive -- so it's being a rebel with a cause, that is what I feel that an artist is and I'm very passionate about it.

The creation part is something that is a a process, and it is a revealing process and every time that I create more things become revealed, and Harmony Fusion Wave Awareness is everything that I've talked about together and it is finding out who you are.

It's basically just being who you are, being the good person who you are, being the person who has a big heart, and someone who is creative and just having fun remembering the little child that we used to have inside of us where there is not fear and no limitations. 

It is only when we grow older that we ever feel our limitations or the rut that we get into when we're older. So now being an elder, I feel that we have to go within our circles of life but we have to sort of still keep the innocence that we had when we were younger...that's what Holistic Art is and I'm Shayna Bracha Farber, I'd love to hear from you, thank you.
