A lifelong artist, Pic designs workshops facilitating creative experiences for a diverse clientelle from the very gifted to behaviorally challenged youth, incarcerated adults to professional teams.
A veteran advertising and marketing artist, Pic specialized in logo development and collateral material for major corporations until she became a full-time painter in the early 90's, travelling the outdoor art circuit with paintings on furniture and canvas.
In the late 90's, under the auspices of Cincinnat's Contemporary Art Center and the Arts Consortium of Cincinnati, Pic added teaching to her palette of creative services working with talented teens though Cincinnati's ArtWorks program. Pic later developed the empowering LifeScapes method of teaching life skills through creative understanding and art practices through dozens of workshops and activities.
Pic's work with people came full circle when she blended her understanding of how the creative process works in life with her corporate experience to create personally and professionally rewarding creative experiences through individual and group processes. Pic is a master Toltec teacher in the tradition of don Miguel Ruiz author of the Four Agreements, and truly brings the heart of the creative process to practical matters in a way that empowers and enlivens to create positive results and experiences.
Some of the corporations and organizations which have implemented Pic's creative and teambuilding workshop facilitation and coaching include: Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Proctor and Gamble Corp., Cincinnati Friends of the Children, The Mayerson Foundation's Service Learning Program at St Ursula Academy, Beech Acres, The Children's Home of Cincinnati, Talbert House, and the Urban Appalachian Council of Greater Cincinnati.
