MEET VIRGINIA
Peace Muse Studio is one of the ten Intentional Creativity Musea around the world.
Intentional Creativity has a lineage that goes back to ideas sparked by Eleanor Roosevelt. Under her guidance and invitation, Master Teacher, Lenore Thomas Straus created art during the "New Deal" that merged idea with intention. Lenore taught Sue Hoya Sellars. Sue Hoya Sellars and Caron McCloud taught Shiloh Sophia and Shannon McCloud.
Shiloh Sophia has gone on to teach Intentional Creativity to tens of thousands around the world, including Virginia. Her work has also resulted in presentations raising awareness at the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women for the last six years.
Intentional Creativity is a guided, step-by-step method of mindful creating that can release blocks, transform old stories into empowering new endings, and create clarity and vision for the future.
Everything within us, past, present, and future lives in a story. By creating with mindfulness and intention, whether making a soup, a garden, a business plan or a painting, we are more present because we chose to be. The results are different than if we are not paying attention. Activating both sides of the brain helps to discover something new or forgotten.
Our past and our challenges are our greatest lessons and incredible opportunities for healing and empowerment. Intentional Creativity helps to release old memories to create space for a new vision and story.

Our Lineage
THROUGH CHOOSING TO CREATE WITH INTENTION, WE BECOME EMPOWERED TO BE THE AUTHOR OF OUR FUTURE. - SHILOH SOPHIA
Intentional Creativity, developed by Shiloh Sophia and her mentor, Sue Hoya Sellers, is a guided, step by step method of mindful creativity where the individual and their story can be transformed from the inside out – not from an outside source or external medicine/healer. This transformation happens because the one telling the story rewrites it in a way that works for the creation of their lives.
INTENTIONAL CREATIVITY IS A MOVEMENT SPREADING ACROSS THE GLOBE WITH A MESSAGE OF HEALING.
A movement where the individual and their story can be transformed from the inside out- not from an outside source or external medicine/healer. This transformation happens by the choice of the one telling the story in the first place. The one who is at cause for changing it in a way that works for the creation of their lives. Through choosing to create with intention, we become empowered to be the author of our future.
Intentional Creativity uses the Muse (the voice of guidance that feeds you rather than feeds off you), as we go on a visioning journey together to find her and gather the medicine, gifts, tools, or knowledge she has for us. The canvas is the portal through which we make a more physical connection and painting and writing are the tools used to assist the Muse to emerge into being.
