Welcome! I am so glad you are here & thank you for stopping by.

I am excited to share wellness tools and methods for using art to mend and nurture self-empowerment.

I grew up in a multi-cultural household which gave me a direct connection to different cultures in the American context. I dig into my own life’s experiences and find treasures to infuse my art with a spirit and spark to speak to people like me, folks who can find themselves feeling overlooked, marginal, or somehow ‘in between.’

Fueled by the rainbow of cultures in my family and by my hunger to explore folk art from Africa, Asia and around the world, it is my intention to continue to develop my unique fusion of love, peace and relief by creating works of art and healing experiences to share.

May you feel a sense

of peace and home

as you journey on

though the pages

of this website

and beyond…

I believe medicine is anything that brings healing, restores balance and promotes wholeness. A remedy may be complex and formulated in a lab or it can be as simple as kind words or as magical as the wind song of a forest.

Using this belief as my springboard, I endeavor to share the self-compassionate practice I am cultivating by using art to hold space, honor and offer ways to integrate vital emotions like anger, uncertainty, sadness, courage, passion, sensuality and joy. May you feel a sense of peace and home as you journey though the pages of this website and beyond…
