About Me
Artist Statement
Art is a divine muse with no shortage of lessons. It is my greatest meditation - mirroring my weaknesses, attachments and ego while allowing me the space and opportunity grow. For every stroke on the canvas, there is a lesson, another leap of faith to take, another truth unveiled.
Just as art has the power to help the individual, it can do the same for the collective conscious and bring the Earth to newer levels of health. It is a visual prayer for the world. With each vision I manifest, I want to spread this medicine of creativity to others. I want to empower people to do what they have always wanted to do, in whatever form or shape that may manifest — be it singing, writing, sewing, or ect.
I truly believe that the change we yearn for in this world happens on the individual level with people sharing their passions and tools with one and another. It helps people step into their true purpose and fulfill their highest calling while also creating the domino affect for the rest of the world.
