Research Detail
I believe that making something with intention and care is a work of art. The creative process of focusing attention, building awareness, drawing connections, and refining skills are necessary for any field that requires the human hand to develop a unique idea. Understanding and working through this process yields artwork, but more importantly develops knowledge, creativity, and empathy. It is my passion and mission to help others connect with their creativity, expanding capabilities that support their own art making and personal growth. Combining mindfulness with art education provides structure and freedom to explore different materials and techniques, making a diverse body of work.
