Hi! I’m Ninón. I am an artist, workshop facilitator and channeler from La Paz, Bolivia. I am passionate about fostering emotional well-being through art. I have eleven years of teaching experience in primary schools, the last five of which have been in Waldorf schools. For the past decade, I have led therapeutic art workshops for children and recently for adults, combining artistic expression with therapeutic techniques to promote healing and self-discovery. I am committed to nurturing creativity and helping people of all ages connect with themselves through art.
My artistic work explores the profound relationship between human beings, the divine, and our creative power—a central theme in my children’s book, *Somos Polvo de Estrellas* (We Are Stardust).
Creativity, personal growth, and emotional well-being guide everything I do. My goal is to help others find their voice and inner strength through the transformative power of art and the guidance of divine spirits during tarot and Akashic Record readings.
You can find my vignettes, illustrations, and paintings on my Instagram page: @ninon.gamarra.
I also share my work in Jungian and Osho-inspired art therapy at @ninon.arte.intuitivo.
