You are invited to remember with Marie taBonne's inspired artwork now on
display at The Green Bough.
"I invite you to open your mind and heart and come with me on a journey to
the House of God Energy."
>From the artist, about her journey:
I am a published writer of hard and feature news, a weekly column and
technical engineering and advertising copy. I served in corporate America as
marketing director for an international manufacturing firm for ten years. My
professional background does not include an art education. I began painting
only AFTER the near death experience and sincerely believe I paint because I
received a gift of spirit to show others what I saw and to share the lessons
I learned on the "other side." I paint without brushes, using only my hands
and fingers.
LOOK AND REMEMBER
A COMMISSION TO CHANGE
by Marie taBonne
<http://www.lookandremember.com/> Witness a collection of original oil
paintings resulting from her
near-death experience.
Selected framed paintings, print reproductions, and her book are available
for purchase. Come and experience the new energy for yourself!

Higher Self. The process helps to set right relationships with self and
others.
