We invite you to surround yourself with body positive artwork and over time it will help soften your gaze when you look at yourself in the mirror. It will encourage you to let go and relax into your body. It will offer you permission to show up with the courage to express yourself more fully.

A bit about me, Nomi Dekel, the creator and owner of VoluptuArt.
I grew up surrounded by artists and entrepreneurs and began to realize this taught me to use art and the creative process as a way of making sense of what was going on in and around me. Art and the creative process became one of my languages – tools for navigating life. This naturally led to using art to heal my experience of negative body image. I surrounded myself with artwork of positive images of the female body and found this process to be powerful. I was shifting my negative view of what I saw in the mirror as I took in positive modeling of larger bodies as beautiful and sensual. It was a new, supportive and self-respecting view of me, even beyond my body size and shape. In my 30 years as a licensed psychotherapist practicing in San Francisco, California, I integrated the use of body positive art and poetry as tools for healing into my Celebrate Your Body Offerings.
When I first started searching for body positive art, I mostly found the classics, images of women not quite of our era and more current/modern art tended to offer images that portray women as unhappy and cold. It became clear to me there was need for a space that offered a more diverse collection of body image art and to make this type of artwork accessible to a wide audience. I realized I could combine my creative expression as an entrepreneur with my love of art into launching VoluptuArt.
