Message from Fab
It is with a heavy, but grateful, heart that I come to announce this month that I will be closing the doors of Spirited Hand Studio in Cincinnati. The reason for this is because my family will be relocating soon to Philadelphia to start a new chapter in our lives. As I prepare for this new transition, I have come to appreciate this meaningful work even more and all of the amazing people I have met in the past few years because of it. So, this is a message of gratitude from a heart full of wonderful memories, and I hope, one way or another, our paths will cross again…
Spirited Hand Studio is an art space dedicated to the practices of contemplative art, spiritual companionship and restorative healing. Created by artist and spiritual practitioner, Fabricia Duell, the studio provides mixed-media art experiences for all ages combining basic elements of art with meditative practices. The result is a creative spirituality that honors expression, reflection and transformation.
ART FOR ALL – no artistic experience is needed!
Contemplative Art is a process oriented art-making concerned with one's continuous journey, and not the final destination. It is creativity in its truest form when creations are manifestations of the artist. It is about self-discovery, self-reflection and self-acceptance. It's about Being. In our studio everybody is invited to explore self-expression and the creative process as a spiritual experience. Our sessions combine moments of art-making, mindfulness and reflection.
Spiritual Companionship
Drawing from a variety of religious expressions and Jungian Psychology, Spirited Hand Studio is also a space for the practice of spiritual companionship, also known, as spiritual direction. Individual sessions are available to adults in search of discernment and re-orientation in the midst of life's transitions. A spiritual companion is someone who listens to and honors your story as sacred, who watches your steps, who feels your pain with compassion, and provides a safe place for rest and discernment. She is a friend for the journey, someone that practices hospitality and unconditional witnessing – judgement free, advice free, agenda free. The companion also serves as a mirror, reflecting what is seen and heard, by asking questions that allow the seeker to go deeper.

Spirituality, the art of BeingSpirituality is aliveness in all levels of life's connections. It's the experiential understanding that you belong to and exist in the Mystery of Life – known as Oneness. In another words, all life is interconnected, and spirituality is the ability to embrace, understand, and protect this connection that surpasses our own individuality and makes all living beings manifestations of our Cosmos.
