Dear Art Lover,

Like you, I watched most of my plans for the past year and a half blow away like Dust in the Wind.

As a speaker and spoken word artist, I had an exciting upcoming itinerary. In 2020 I was scheduled for retreats in Hawai'i, Cuba, and Portugal (among other locations), and I was super excited!

I made my attempts to do the Pandemic Pivot and move my events online, but in November of 2020, something strange took hold of me. I became obsessed with abstract art.

Though I started my artistic journey as a painter (showing my watercolors beginning at age 12), I kept my drawings and paintings reasonably hidden. This work was strictly portraiture in realism. I had always been intimated by abstract expressionism. I was convinced that the symbolism was over my head.

So it took me by surprise when I found myself getting out blue and green watercolors and applying color and shapes that suggested the feeling of the calming seas.

I was mourning my broken dreams of swimming in Kahana Bay on the windward side of Oahu, Praia da Adraga in Sintra Portugal, or Cuba's Playa Bacuranao. But I found that painting with their oceanic colors helped ease my emotional pain; I found a Remedy for what was hurting my heart during the pandemic.

Now I am offering it to you.

Please look through the paintings, watch a video about my process, learn more about me, consider owning one of the pieces, listen to my podcast on the spirituality of art or contact me for projects you might have in mind.
