Creativity is the compass. 

Presence is the practice. 

Years ago, I felt the ache of creative disconnect.

I wasn’t sure who I was anymore—except I knew I was tired:

  • Tired of the hustle.
  • Tired of wondering if my art even mattered.
  • Tired of silencing the part of me that longed to create.

So I entered the forest and began again.

With sticks, stones, and breath—because nature is my medium—I made art that wasn’t for exhibit or sale.

...It was art that helped me remember who I am.

...It led me to a new way. A truer way.

That’s where art-based mindfulness was born:
a practice for artists, seekers, and sensitives ready to feel present, whole, and creatively alive again.

The Parables follow the narrative of the Hero’s Journey.
Their stories mirror more than just my own—they reflect what so many of us quietly carry.

You are not alone if…

  • You ache to create something meaningful… but feel blocked or burnt out
  • You compare your artwork to others and always fall short
  • Your creativity feels like a luxury you've surrendered to "real life"
  • Your notebooks, brushes, and dreams lie dormant
  • You used to feel inspired—now, you just feel overwhelmed

There’s a gentle way forward.

 

At Jodi Rose Studio, we don’t create to impress—we create to remember.

To heal. To connect. To reclaim the sacred parts of ourselves we've buried beneath expectation and doubt.

Whether you’re returning to art after a long pause,
Or just beginning to take your creative voice seriously—

Jodi Rose Gonzales

Hi, I’m Jodi—an artist, art therapist, and founder of iROSE art-based mindfulness.

That might sound impressive, but there were many times in my life that I questioned whether or not I was a “real artist.”

Like many who find their way here, I’ve known the shadow of creative doubt and disconnect. I've felt "off my path,"...and worked my way back again.

As a lifelong maker and healer, I eventually uncovered what so many of us forget: creativity isn’t a luxury—it’s a birthright. Transformation isn’t just possible, it's an art form.

ABOUT MY JOURNEY

"Jodi helped me reclaim parts of myself I thought were gone forever."

- Sara

"Her prompts brought me back to the joy of making without judgment."

- Caryl

"The iROSE community feels like a creative home."

- Suzanne

Your creativity isn’t frivolous.

It’s part of your healing, your joy, your wholeness.

Whether you’re blocked, blooming, or somewhere in between—

There’s a place for you here.
