Bio
My earliest memories always involve paint caked on my tiny fingers. I was extremely shy and intro-verted as a child and found art as a way to escape my feelings of solitude. My crayons, pencils and paint became my dearest friends. Years later, when I finally came out of my shell, I abandoned my art practice with it. It wasn’t until almost a decade later that I began to feel an emptiness inside that I couldn’t describe. I couldn’t even look at a work of art without these feelings getting triggered. I had suppressed such an important part of myself and didn’t realize the extent of it until I had a dream where I was painting on a huge wall. I woke up filled with joy that only dissipated when I realized it was just a dream. This was the motivation I needed to get me painting again. I started a mural business shortly after and have painted well over 1000 murals for various clients in the last 18 years.
Well, that nagging at my heart and stirring in my soul started back up last year. Although I enjoy painting mural commissions, I feel my creativity is taking me on a new path. It’s been a long journey artistically for me and I feel I’m just getting started. I’m taking the time to explore what passions tug at my soul screaming to be expressed. Painting has become part of my spiritual practice by trusting the process and leaving it up to my higher self to guide me. I love combining my passion for music, dance, mindfulness, energy work and the freedom of letting things come and go in my paintings. I hope I can inspire you to go after whatever has been tugging at your heart. It’s never too late to begin again….
Sending you my love,
