Passion: Creating Awareness through Art
My name is Elisabeth Vismans and I’m an Award Winning Artist, Art Instructor, Speaker, a Certified Professional Life Purpose Coach, and a NLP Practitioner I have developed a unique coaching program using paint as an extra modality.
I don’t know you but do I feel your pain ….
I understand why people seek the guidance of a coach, because I have felt the emptiness of living a life not true to my values. I had a great life, living in different countries, working for multinationals, traveling. On the outside it all looked so glamorous, however on the inside it was a different story. I became detached, lonely and utterly unfulfilled. At the time I didn’t know it, but my life was out of whack, because my values were not aligned with my life. That’s when I decided to make a change.
No more 9 to 5 jobs!
I am going to follow my passion. I am going to paint. I picked up a brush, and never looked back. It felt like coming home.
I had found my purpose … well almost …
I also needed to find my tribe again and wanted to show others how satisfying it is to live a life on purpose.
Today, I coach clients around the world, with or without painting, and I am a passionate art instructor teaching how to paint with heart and soul while enjoying the process. With the intuitive painting you will paint your life story, your blocks, your struggles. The images from within will create awareness of what needs to be dealt with, in order to artfully create a life on purpose.
My core values are:
freedom of expression, being part of a community and reliability
Many Hats | One Goal
Finding Purpose in Life and sharing my knowledge

Painting and Horses – A workshop for Coaches
Painting & Horses: A Workshop for Coaches
By Joy Goldman, PCC Secretary, ICF MD Chapter
September 29th was an overcast and dreary day, not unlike many of the days the latter part of September and early October. I was one of sixteen lucky people who got to participate in Elizabeth Herman’s and Elisabeth Vismans’ ICF-Maryland’s workshop on painting and horses, and their use in coaching. This three-hour workshop was held on the beautiful Four-Quarters Farm in Hampstead, MD.
After introductions, Elisabeth introduced us to our first hour of painting. Her coaching to us was to suspend the judging mind and to be present to the colors that were speaking to … (read more)
