Art is life. Free yourself in nature and listen. Keep those memories close and place them in your heart. The heart will speak in art.

My artist expression is continuously evolving. Creativity flows from the profound memories that are captured from the wonders of the natural laws of nature. The heart space speaks through the energy that gently guides a paint brush through the mix media of colors and magic laid upon the surface. An arrangement of movement or a rearrangement in another direction until the memory is enlivened, the meditation begins, and nature's story begins, is my favorite type of art to create.
Where do you find inspiration?As the sacred earth covered in magic and abundance of nature weaves itself into the resonating waves of water, space and air, I feel the freedom, the flow, and the interconnection of the natural laws whispering the love of creation. These memories will forever be interwoven in my being, spirit, mind and body and is where I find true inspiration. Recreating and transforming the energy from reflections of life experiences in a natural setting into art is a creative force of inspiration.
What would you do with $25,000?I dream of creating an art cafe and holistic wellness space that helps individuals stand in their truth, psychologically and physiologically with a huge focus on purpose over profit. I love the saying 'live simply so others may simply live,' and that would be an integral part of my plan...do business for the good of humans and the good of the natural world. I would love to help others understand the interconnectedness we share with each other and mother earth through this business idea.
