Have you ever thought about the magical powers that creative folk can harness? Back in the day people associated deep meaning to those that had creative genius.

She became art: Surrealist Siren
A new year’s triumph emerges! On the eve of 2026, I painted electric hues on skin till woman became art. A walking canvas. Part deer, part siren, part painting. And what a delightful woman she was. She became art, amazing festival goers at AUM and filling my cup up once again. Meet Jenna. My sweet…

My moment with Titan
I wanted a painting challenge so I turned to the old masters. Titan’s “Woman with a Mirror” felt like a perfect fit for me; the subject’s main character energy was erotic and coy, the composition was easy enough to adapt to my needs, and the topic was something I could play with. I wanted to…

Animals Within- Humming Bird Woman
I have a real strong love of birds. Especially hummingbirds, I mean those feathers are just the most flashy fantastical feature of the natural world. Prismatics are nature’s fireworks. And my love of connecting symbolic attributes to human forms…here’s where it get interesting. I know that we soar. We fly over situations, we rise above…

Venus
One thing that’s quirky about sharing the art online is you, the viewer, have no sense of scale. This whimsical floaty figure is about 10 cm big…or shall I say small? What I like about it isn’t the way she looks as much as the way I feel when I look at her…and the way…

Young Lilith
There is a story as old as time. Of woman’s rebellion and refusal to be tamed. She is me. She is the moon and the shadows and the underworld and the fire of new dawn. She lives in my bones and my heart like a muddy shriek of primal protectiveness. But she won’t protect illusionary…

Slow Burn Panther Woman
A stalking shadow of ourselves is watching us. Always. This inner panther and prey dance. It reins terror for the faint of heart…making them jump and shrivel at their own form. Yet we the initiated, we the brave warriors of truth-telling and self-awareness, and how well we know ourselves! We know the depths and tunnels…

Goddess of the Corn
One of the greatest gifts Mexico has given the world is corn. The other is chocolate. Anyways, of the first…corn…the most amazing amount of feminine deities and origin stories vortex around this amazing plant. The indigenous people who those stories belong to have full protective rights to those names, identities, and stories so I won’t…

What exhibiting my art has done for me
Oh my goodness. In 2021 I started showing my artwork to the public. I haven’t done this since I was a teenager. What took me 20 years you may wonder?? Well for one I was terrified of rejection…also one gallery owner said my work was GOOD but “it wouldn’t sell here in this suburb so…
