Marti McGinnis is an artist, writer, teacher, and equestrian with 40 years of creative practice and certification in Person-Centred Expressive Arts. She is also a lifelong highly sensitive person who spent decades trying to understand her own operating system before finally writing the field guide she always needed. Her work lives at the intersection of science, soul, and hand-drawn wisdom. She is based in the central highlands of Mexico, where she runs Charcoal Horse - an equine-assisted inspiration practice - and continues to fill notebooks at an alarming rate.
