I have taken the course twice so far, and am looking forward to take the next course about the ''Vein of Gold'', which follows the ''Artist's Way''. This course has opened many new doors in different aspects of my life on top of the artistic ones. Catherine is the perfect guide for the journey, she is gentle and professional.

“The Artist's Way has shown me how to find the way that I want to live, the path that I want to take, instead of just following the crowd.”
Trevor Tierney, All World Honours Gold Medal Lacrosse Goalie
“I did not know about synchronicity. (except through the lyrics of the band “The Police” ) I did not know about unblocking my creativity. I did not know about “crazy makers” (That cleared up so much!) I did not know how much fear was within me. Success can be really scary! I did not know that money would come and it did! What i knew prior to the course was reinforced in many ways. However, what I learned was to approach every situation, good or difficult, with an awareness that I will be able to handle whatever comes before me. I will celebrate every challenge achieved, every accomplished goal, and appreciate the insight obtained when I need to let go, or face a failure. BOTTOM LINE- I CAN HANDLE WHATEVER IS BEFORE ME!”
Sheryl Ann Medicoff, Artist and Photographer, Montreal
“This workshop helped me to focus on fulfilling my needs rather than putting everyone else's first and it gave me the time and the space to spend time with myself and enjoy doing things I like. I feel the happiest I have been up to now and the most independent...and that is thanks to you.”
Anonymous, Child Psychologist, Montreal
“What a wonderful way to get back in touch with creative energy, imagination and expression. Spending 12 weeks doing the Artist Way Workshops with Catherine Davidson within a group exploring different forms of artistic expression together was truly inspiring. Like many others, I read the Artist Way on my own years ago. I got to chapter 4 or 5 and stopped. With the help of group support and the warm, nurturing environment Catherine encourages, I made it all the way through the book and discovered many powerful and delightful treasures along the way that now feed a steady flow of creative expression and exploration. I recommend this workshop to anyone ready to claim or reclaim their budding artist selves.”
Irene Rapaport, Artist, Montreal
“Having 2 hours set aside each Friday night at the “Artist’s Way” Workshop helped me refocus on my creativity, making me realize afresh that creativity takes cultivation, encouragement from others and confidence in our own abilities. I did receive lots of encouragement and I felt inspired by Catherine and the other participants to go forward and to enjoy this creative journey and who knows: It may bring me to a realization of my creative aspirations!”
Lorraine Wibbing, Artist, Montreal
“The Artist’s Way group has been a tremendous and surprising support and encouragement for my art and my career. My music and my writing have reached new levels of expression. I have received a grant to record an album with my talented group “flotilla” and have begun to publish my poetry. Attending the group made me realize I was not the only one who struggled with procrastination, doubt and dry spells when it came to my art. It encouraged me to gently continue with the creative process despite these “obstacles.” What I also found inspiring was hearing about how others were taking steps towards fulfilling their creative dreams.”
Veronica Charnley, Singer and songwriter
“I really like what you are doing with these courses. I was in a very confused state until I started focusing on my dreams. I’ve just received a scholarship to study Finance at Berkeley in California.”

“The Artist’s Way created a wonderful harmony between by music and spirituality taking me on an unknown yet protected path.”
Tanya Nielsen, Singer and songwriter
“I think for me it was getting in touch with the concept of the inner artist and that it has to be nourished and protected. I’m making sure that I get my creative input now.”
Donna Atkinson, Painter
"I would like to do this course again!"
