Thank you for this post. I love the work of Nicki Saint Phalle, but knew nothing of her story. As a tarot consultant, I have always wanted to visit the tarot garden, as an artist I appreciate greatly the enormity of her endeavors. I saw a white sculptural figurative piece of hers at one of the museums in Paris and not knowing it was hers it completely stopped me in her tracks.
Yes I do. I have been doing it forever, used to teach. I do them from a transformational/spiritual point of view. No fortune telling for me, people have a difficult enough staying present for their lives. It sneaks in every great once in a while. If you want to know more check out my other blog www.ourlivingdream.blogspot.com. Thank you again for Nicki St. Phalle
Thanks for some art ed, Martha. I wasn't familiar with Niki St. Phalle, so I was fascinated with her story and watched almost all the clips about her. What spectacular sculpture! And her kitchen, wow...who would ever think of that? Bring on the Windex.
I am an artist, an art teacher, a mother of five children, and a grandmother of four, and I live with my husband and our two cats in the woods of Woolwich, Maine. I teach drawing classes through the Continuing Studies Department at Maine College of Art in Portland, and now privately in my new (!) studio @ 72 Front Street, Bath. My blog 'Martha Miller' shares my art, my process, and my inspirations, and my blog 'Not Bad Thing' showcases my daughter Lisbeth's artwork and process. It is also where I share my experience as a mother of an adult child with special needs. You can see more of my artwork on my website @ www.marthamiller.com

Hi Katherine!
You are welcome! I would also love to see that tarot garden! You are a tarot consultant - does that mean you read cards?
Best!
