MY STUDIO
My studio space is located in the heart of my house, my kitchen! Tucked into the brightest corner, surrounded by two large windows, you will find the beautiful chaos that is my creation space. This is my sacred space, surrounded not only by natural light, but also food, music, plants and animals.
As I begin to work on each piece, I am guided by the thoughts and feelings of each day. All of my artwork is a product of emotional guidance. I work in flow with what I am experiencing at that moment in time. To assist in the creation process, I listen to a playlist or drop on one of my favorite records and transport myself into an area in which time does not exist. I enter the 'flow' and let myself get lost. During the creation process, I am often joined by my dog (Pippi) and calico cat (Mia) who curl up on the tarp under my easel, watching me intently.
I don’t have a strict time schedule, nor do I paint every day. Some days I sketch or draw while watching TV, other days I create digital art while working on my computer. However, the days full of sun are dedicated to painting in order to maximize the use of natural light.
To create is truly a necessity in my way of being. It is the device that sets my soul free.
