Hi, I’m Bernadette!
I help creatives realize their dreams to Do More ARt!
The Universal Nature of Art and Creativity
Claire: I love how universal you made the steps in Do Your ARt! so they can apply to any creative outlet, not just traditional performing arts forms. How is your perception of art and creativity shaped by your experience as a seamstress at your custom drapery business?
Bernadette: I often did not finish my projects when I started sewing. The exciting thing about sewing is the potential of the whole cloth. Walking into a fabric store, surrounded by bolts and bolts of uncut fabric, seeing the colors, the patterns, the textures, anything is possible. The sumptuous silk charmeuse could be a luxurious nightgown, camisole, or Victorian blouse. The ecru linen could be a three-piece suit, a tablecloth, or a christening gown. The cotton calico could be a prairie dress, a queen-size bed quilt, or a charming crop top. Read more…
What Clients are Saying
I have had the pleasure of working with Bernadette Stockwell as my writing coach and mentor for the past year; and what a year it has been! Through a pandemic, Bernadette has been the shining light that kept me focused when everything else seemed to be pulling away my attention from writing.
Her knowledge of the writing process is outstanding; providing actionable suggestions that give a fledgling writer like myself the tools to overcome blockades. She has a unique ability to breakdown difficult tasks (such as dreaded editing) into smaller digestible portions that are not only less difficult, but now enjoyable.
Alexandra Weill, MD, author of How to Get Your Doctor to Listen.
My name is Eileen Healy and I am well-known artist/art teacher and musician based in Cork, Ireland.
Bernadette was always encouraging and supportive. She helped me to gather the necessary tools to rejuvenate my creative spirit.
I continue to be a major part of the thriving artistic scene in Cork City where I live, teach, play music and have a studio in Backwater Studios and I teach Life Drawing/Painting at Crawford College of Art.
