Dixie Print

There was very little money to go around in a family with 6 children growing up in Maple Ridge BC. ; However, I do remember my mother making sure I had all the felt pens, crayons and paper any little girl could desire. There was no containing the artist in me. I painted murals on my bedroom walls and the doors. Mom let these small issues slide, as she was smart enough to figure out she should choose her battles, with such a creative little nymph like myself. Like many young women finishing college, starting a career then to marriage and raising children. My artistic endeavors ceased to exist. It is now in the last 10 years, that I have reclaimed my worthiness to hold the brush and play with paint. Instead of seeking out laundry or other tasks having no formal training, I am a self taught artist who does not like rules. I still make plenty of mistakes when mixing colors and formatting my perspectives. I draw inspiration from this quote, 'you learn from our mistakes and make changes towards greatness' In time, my art will reach out to many and provide a light to another own greatness. This defines my purpose and success. My artwork is created to share experiences discovered to me and brought to me in my own life. I use art as the modality for teaching and exploration of my client's attitudes and beliefs about wellness. You may purchase my art of simple pleasure or for the experience of engaging in an experiential process. A rich opportunity a new perception or reality around who you are in this world. My paintings are expressionistic rich and vivid in colors , textures . Layers and layers of paint are laid on the canvas to give life and depth to teach the story. Just like the layers of our life experiences a trans-positional event to create something very magical indeed.
