"What kind of art do you do?"

"What kind of art do you do?"

I am often asked, "what kind of art do you do?"

While I could just say “multimedia artist,” that doesn’t quite capture the full scope of my work. To convey the essence of my artistic journey over the past 20 years, I’ve created a dedicated page on my website.

Inspired by life and living, I've explored many mediums—from jewelry making and costume design to leather crafting, body painting, painting, woodwork, resin, alcohol ink, sculpting, pyrography, etc. I am compelled to create, relentlessly inspired, and motivated to explore and expand.

Like many artists, I’ve been creating and crafting since I was a child. I immersed myself in a fantasy world, devouring fairy tales and soaking up the vivid imagery from those books.

Once I finished beauty school and established myself as a hairstylist, I was positioned to pursue all kinds of ideas. I was at a party and saw a fire dancer, she was a goddess! I wanted to learn her craft and so I did. I enjoyed fire dancing for about 10 years, and during that time I created costumes, headdresses and jewelry for performance for myself and other dancers. This naturally led me into body art, where I could combine my costume designs and hairstyling skills with body painting. I’ve worked on more than 60 shoots and participated in several shows, galas, and private parties

During this time, I delved deeper into yoga and self-discovery. On a whim, I found myself in Hawaii for a yoga teacher training. Although I hadn’t planned to teach, everything fell into place so seamlessly upon my return that I ended up teaching at several studios over the next decade. Today, I still teach, but primarily offer private sessions and a few community classes that blend yoga with meditation, healing tools, and sound bath. 

Four years ago, I began experimenting with fluid art, which quickly evolved into a passion for creating both wall art and functional pieces. I now work with a variety of materials, including resin, reclaimed wood, pyrography, paint, crystals, rocks, and more!

Drawing from the wisdom of various healers and spiritual coaches from my own healing journey, I infuse my art with high vibrations and healing intentions. Through a blend of intention, sound, prayer, smudging, essential oils, crystals, and sacred geometry, each piece becomes a piece of peace.

In the sanctuary of my yoga and art studio, I dedicate each day to expanding my skills. My goal is to offer a repertoire of art that inspires personal evolution and radiates joy. I aspire to create not just visually appealing pieces but transformative experiences that speak to the soul.
