"Denise Daffara works with women to shine a light on self doubt. 
Through intentional creativity, she helps seekers shift 
into powerful women of courage who are free to fly... "

Creativi-Tea with the Muse
here's a little video of how the two day workshop flowed.




What do I mean by the Muse ?

I was recently asked this question... it may be of interest to you too if you are wondering...  What does she mean by the "Muse?"

Question:  What is a muse to you? Female / Male, Child Adult, Rock formation or water under flood, lover past or present, noise or silence? What is a muse for you?
Denise Daffara : The or A wise voice within.. She who believes in me, loves me unconditionally even more than I can imagine.. She's a direct link to Source.. She is Source, Divine ... She's another way in..   She's also the opposite voice to that if the inner critic. That's who she is for me... however you define her/him is entirely up to you.

Lady of Divine Spark, 

she was created using the method
 of Visionary Painting, and intentional creativity
that I teach


within her layers 
are my intentions, 
and fears, joys and symbols.  

When I look into those eyes 

I know I'm in the right place.

Intentional Creativity Movement  as taught by Shiloh Sophia McCloud

What is the Intentional Creativity Movement?

We are a tribe of creative beings causing our own movement in art and image created with intention. I have worked in this creative technology for close to twenty years and thousands of women have participated in this work through making their own images and stories. A gathering is happening….the image of the feminine is changing in our own hands. A movement can happen when a quantum mass of people begin to gather and create around a specific theme or intention. Here is a little about about the story of Intentional Creativity as taught in the Color of Woman Method through Cosmic Cowgirls University. We call this style of painting – Contemporary Symbolism. read more about the Intentional Creativity Movement here

About Me
I have been painting since 1999, when I first began having lessons with local artist Peter Hales, from there I progressed to my own solo exhibitions at Tiffany Jones Fine Art Gallery in Buderim 2007, 08 and 09. I have had some great success with my professional art career, and times of challenge as well - artist’s block for 2+ years along with bouts of depression.  

I share that fact because it is this visionary painting method of intentional creativity, revolutionised by artist Shiloh Sophia McCloud that has made an enriching contribution to my well-being. I entered into the teacher training program I was so convinced at it’s merit and value for myself and my community.  

I seek to nurture, enliven, meet and open up to boldness and courage in my self as an artist and woman. I have a heart to work with those who have a desire to believe in themselves, develop healthy ways of navigating their interior landscape using creativity and grow their self esteem so that they are giving from their overflow.  It is a privilege to sit in circle and create with other women, I treat this offering as such.

A Sip of my tea

“For a long while now I have had a thing about fine china tea cups and the ritual of making a pot of tea.  It’s a little bit of magic that I pour into my life several times a day. I make each pot of tea with an intention in mind, much like you might bless your food before you eat, I love to infuse the moment with a wish, a hope or a desire, anything really that’s on my mind, and I sip tea with my Muse daily. ”
