The majority of my life has been about re-purposing, bringing new life to numerous discarded objects. 
My creative spirit has evolved over the past few years using acrylics, mixed media and canvas to create new life 
passion and purpose. I started painting illustrative type art and shortly after started moving towards
more creative expression. The ease and uniqueness of this process created more interest for me and 
I became dedicated and committed to allowing my expression to come through.
Being mostly self taught has allowed me to have a voice with unusual shapes, squiggles, lines, dots
and bold colors that intuitively unfolds and manifest into a piece of art. 
The process of my current  work consists of multiple layers ultimately initiating the order of the 
final image, inviting the viewer to become unexpectedly intrigued and letting the imagination determine
the underlying images. Due to being brave and bold, the freedom of my artistic journey allows the voice
of my true self to emerge with each painting. I consider my art to come from a zen place so I refer to it as
Zentuitive Art™.  Check out my zen gallery and look closely at the embedded images. My newest work has
developed into abstract paintings and some zentuitive drawings.
My journey has also developed workshops to encourage others to reach in and connect with a very special 
part of themselves which brings about a sense of empowerment.
