Creating a New Earth

Welcome to Creating a New Earth. I’m Denise Roussel—author, artist, and guide—and this site is a living tapestry of my work. Here you’ll find many facets of my life woven together: writing, art, healing, and soulful reflections. My passion is creating spaces—both inner and outer—that nurture presence, love, and transformation. This site is an invitation to explore, connect, and discover what it means to awaken together into a new way of being.


Come meet the ones who never forgot how to be fully alive.

Where the Wild Smiles is a collection of original mixed-media portraits — animals dressed in their full human glory, each one carrying a frequency of joy, dignity, and delight.

Experience the exhibit online — and cast your vote for your favorite portrait.
