Rythea Lee lives, breathes, and dreams ART. Her life’s work involves the marriage of healing and creativity as a force for changing the world. Utilizing many creative modalities including painting, dancing, singing, songwriting, writing, video, and theatre, Rythea has found transformation in her own life while also assisting and supporting others.

Rythea is an Inner Bonding therapist with a private practice for the past 10 years in Florence, MA. She is co-founder of the Zany Angels Dance Theatre Company, a local troupe that performs and teaches throughout the year.
Rythea recently wrote a new book entitled “Trauma into Truth: Gutsy Healing and Why It’s Worth it” which is for sale at Cup and Top Cafe and also at Amazon.com.

The paintings included in this show were painted from the simple joy of expression. Though her paintings are often whimsical and playful, Rythea has cultivated these qualities through hard won dedication and commitment to a life of healing. She has found in her most difficult and scary moments of memory, she could express, and this has anchored her into a daily practice of pleasure and joy. These paintings are a reflection of the salvation that comes from creative process and product.

Rythea welcomes your comments in her comment book, and invites you to answer the question, “what feelings, memories, hopes, pleasures, come to mind when you see my art?” Her most sincere wish is that her art will inspire you to make yours.
