A Few Words About Us

28 Lifelines is a safe container to express your unique self through visionary art classes. Our journey begins with 28 lines on a canvas...which will bring a face to life! We use a 13 step process to complete each painting experience.

Welcome...I am Melanie Tsilivitis, the founder of 28 Lifelines and I believe that you have the grace to create, heal and transform your life. You are an Artist. Have you ever felt that you want to take a different path than the one you are on? Have you felt Disconnected? Can one conversation change your life?

melanie_sq_in_art_studio_300I believe that Intentional Creativity can help. Imagine a deep yearning from within your soul longing to be expressed; days and nights pass by knowing you want to do more and give more. I can show you how to embrace your power of your creative wisdom through art. I support you to discover inner creative wisdom as a tool to inspire life action, find new pathways to solve problems and learn to unleash self-expression. The Value of this technology lies in the abilities to foster transformative healing opportunities that in turn, enhance and enrich the human experience in personal and professional areas. We will do this through intuition painting, symbolism, and writing practices, that encourage you to tell your story your unique story. The process will reveal what your heart’s desire is and how to create a new story that includes this desire.  Imagine spending a day painting and journaling to encounter your unique story.  Explore the beliefs and the deceptions you have unconsciously been telling yourself in the past and have held you back... You will actually start with 28 lines on a canvas which bring a face to life! Acknowledge and transform the final artwork through a 13 step method process, called “Intentional Creativity” and move forward with ease...
