Come Home to Your Heart

This book is a guide to exploring spirituality and deepening connection through abstract color-making. Born from workshops and retreats inspired by Paulo Freire’s vision of collaborative education, it introduces the Color Thinking exercise—an approach that honors each participant’s wisdom and experience. Unlike traditional methods that impose knowledge from the top down, this process fosters open, non-divisive conversations about God and personal belief. With a focus on inclusivity and shared meaning-making, this resource offers individuals and groups a creative, transformative way to engage in dialogue and live more fully in love.

Greening Grace

This book is an invitation—to question, to feel, and to think in color. Moving beyond rigid definitions and academic argumentation, it explores grace not as a fixed concept but as an experience, a presence, like air—essential, ever-present, yet often unnoticed. Through abstract painting and poetic reflection, it offers a new way of knowing, one rooted in collaboration and personal discovery. Inspired by the work of Paulo Freire and Sophie Calle, it invites readers to bypass conventional discourse and instead engage with grace through color, sensation, and shared experience, creating space for deeper understanding and connection.

Variations of Gravity and Grace: Simone Weil in Poetic Form

This book is an intimate dialogue across time, a poetic reimagining of Simone Weil’s Gravity and Grace. Through translation, reclassification, and artistic reinterpretation, I invite readers into a meditative conversation, not just with Weil’s words but with the ineffable spaces beyond them. Inspired by Weil’s own approach to translation, the text unfolds as both an act of devotion and creative expansion—blurring the line between philosophy, poetry, and prayer. With each word and verse, the book becomes a living conversation, inviting readers to listen, respond, and step into the mystery of grace themselves.
