Oracle artist Pat Dolan has written and published a book about her spiritual journey through life. Her book, Stalking the Sacred, is a memoir that takes a look at death and dying and seeks to understand “what happens after death.”
Her journey from growing up Catholic to learning about shamanism, pre-Christian Celtic spirituality and the indigenous tribe of the Achuar in the Ecuadorian rain forest is written with honesty, warmth and humor. The book is adorned with many of Pat’s illustrations including some of her “spirit animals”. She talks to animals, trees and yes, even the dead. You can discover her reality and perhaps an awareness of your own spirituality in the book.
On Monday, March 27, Pat read excerpts from her book at a book signing event held at the RLV OracleArt Horse Barn.
Pat lives at Rancho Linda Vista in Oracle. She teaches art and has exhibited her art nationally. She is a faculty member at the Drawing Studio in Tucson.
Stalking the Sacred is available at Amazon, Antigone Books (411 N. 4th Avenue in Tucson) or contact Pat at brightflame@mac.com.
