Bio:
As a multi-media artist, I specialize in body painting women and pregnant women, capturing the essence of femininity and motherhood through my unique artistry. My creations extend beyond body paint, delving into the realm of soulful and emotional art using watercolor, acrylic, and oil paints. I love to explore and play with various mediums like wood, metal, and glass.
Embarking on my art business journey amidst the turbulence of 2020, I pursued my lifelong dream of becoming an artist. Some of my cherished accomplishments include being a featured artist at the Tempe Festival of the Arts and being apart of the BGBG Collective's Queen Rise Art Walk, a non-profit organization dedicated to showcasing women of color who craft meaningful artwork.
Passionate about teaching others, I conduct art workshops across the Valley of Phoenix. Through my art, I strive to foster community cohesion, facilitate healing, and empower individuals to express themselves. Rooted in spirituality and emotion, my work celebrates the essence of the Divine Feminine, echoing themes of strength, beauty, and interconnectedness.
