"As an artist, writer, photographer and coach, my greatest strength, and at the same time greatest weakness, is the multitude of ideas I have and directions in which I go. My mission in life is opening up people, including myself, to seeing things in new and different ways and, ultimately, empowering us in further enriching our lives. Writing and Photography are my main tools of access. Picture to Ponder, my free ezine, is one of the avenues people have for experiencing these shifts for themselves. This site, and page, is designed to be the place to which I can direct people, the pivotal point from which you can select, and follow the links to, those of my creative ventures that most interest you." Sheila Finkelstein

What other people are saying:

"Sheila has a keen eye for what is being processed inside the photographer as well is in the frame. She is kind and creative. Ansel Adams said 'A photograph is usually looked at - seldom looked into.' Sheila looks deeply, and I am grateful for her insight and generous wisdom." Blaise Allen, Art Therapist/Poet/Writer/Photographer

"What your work does is to give people a menu of delectible, digestible, bite-sized morsels which may stimulate their appetite...and quite a statisfying meal it is!" Linda Gipson, RMT

You can have these experiences yourself in my ezine, book, and DVD all of which inspire transformation in how people see things in their inner and outer worlds. My photography and art products transform the environments in which they are placed.
