Art is my sanctuary
Benefits of an Art Practice
An intentional art practice can change your reality.
It can help to flow loving intention to all areas of your life.
Heal trauma, relieve stress, create a sense of purpose, feel connection, explore spirituality, invite playfulness, experiment, discover, nourish the inner child.
By practicing the art of intentional, holistic creating,
you can shift emotional and mental blocks.

"The blood flow increased for a beautiful painting just as it increases when you look at somebody you love. It tells us art induces a feel good sensation direct to the brain."
– Professor Semir Zeki, chair in neuroaesthetics at University College London
My Art Practice...
I create art commercially and for personal wellbeing. People often ask me what my medium is. I have to say I am an artidexterous, multidisciplinary artist (mouthful though that is) as the list of mediums is long; tattooing, jewelry making, clothing design, printmaking, illustration, coloring books. painting, ceramics, sculpture, collaging, digital new media and photography, modeling, web and graphic design, board game development.
Journeys
Originally from Europe, my American adventure started in 2000.
After several years on the East Coast and gaining a diploma in massage therapy, I explored life in spiritual places, developing my offering of holistic therapies and creative practice in Sedona, AZ and Tulum, Mexico.
Arriving in California in 2012, I have focused on higher education and entrepreneurship. The remote and beautiful Mendocino coast in Northern California called me to continue my spiritual and creative practice for self-healing and growth where I was able to create a live/work art studio called Gaia Tree Studio,
It also serves as an art filled getaway for folks visiting the area.
Sharing The Medicine
My goals are;
to facilitate art wellness practices for others
to research the therapeutic effects of ceramics
to become proficient at visually communicating important environmental and scientific issues
to support and expand the crucial art of ecofeminism through education and focused artmaking
Thank you for your support:)
