Realism! I love painting what I see. Love and Gratitude. Sharing my vibrations through different mediums. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest the tides come in and go out. The sand has become my canvas. I rake message of what I see into the sand, recently this was an image of my life long friends dog Sophie who passed away. A plane was flying over and these messages can be seen from the sky and maybe even further away in deep space. Hope & spirit. I also love working with Acrylics and Nature.
Where do you find inspiration?My family of artists. My mom & dad. My father recently passed away and his life inspired me. He was an actor! Robert Anthony Mannino/ Leaping Deer. He was born in Altoona, Pennsylvania, June 16, 1944. He moved to New York young and acted with the stars. He was in Good Guys Wear Black with Chuck Norris and All the Presidents Men, Weekend at Bernie’s and many more. My mom Pamala Van Winkle grew up in Hollywood California, where I was born. Her family worked on the set of Jeopardy. Entertainment.
What would you do with $25,000?Heal Earth and Soul. Share a vision I had while sitting with ayahuasca. Dedicating my life to planting trees and working with Cacao. My father and I created Resonate Regenerative/ Resonate Chocolate with the social purpose of planting trees, bringing food and water to those in need and helping to educate the youth. Being my father’s end of life caregiver became priority and I’m here to continue our vision. I’d also improve my art skills with teachers Autumn Skye Morrison & Amanda Sage. Grateful
