I discovered a 'new' world and am eager to share this gift with you. Listening to my heart for answers, I fell in love with the girl of my dreams (my twin flame - how cool is that?), manifested abundance into my life, and have traveled the world.
DREAMS, AWAKENED. OPPORTUNITIES, CREATED.
Back in high school is when I first recognized my unique gift. And as I got older (I mean wiser), there was always this constant compelling emotion that I needed to share my gift. Through my mid-20s, I began listening to my inner guidance more (my intuition, my dharma - there are many names for it) and cultivated this artistic passion - my true gift. The more I created, the more I began noticing 'magical' opportunities coming to me. This fascinated me. It stimulated me to learn more about this powerful pattern I began noticing more and more in my life.
And so I created and painted and explored and illuminated and invented like my heart depended on it. I launched my website. My portfolio flowered. I got a book cover deal. My art found more eyes from unexpected places (yet totally expected - more on this later). Big deals came a knockin'. Contracts were signed. My art became licensed - partnering with businesses and leaders of some of the most innovative and promising companies. My shop was born. Created musical album covers. People expressed love. The power of art was shared. Bliss was found.
I REALIZED SOMETHING AMAZING - ALL MY TRAINING AS AN ENGINEER, A CONSTRUCTION SUPERINTENDENT, A FACILITIES MANAGER - WERE NOT FOR NOTHING.
I was still learning, sharing, building relationships, communicating ideas, making an impact - except using a paintbrush in a studio, instead of a pencil, pad of paper and camera on construction sites. Same skills. New avenue. My passion.
AND SO, I CONTINUED PAINTING - AND SELLING - AND LICENSING - MY ART.
And now, here I am. Energized and uplifted - living the dream. Exploring the world, the people, the environment with my twin flame. Writing and painting along every step. Capturing the moments with a new color, a new lens, and a new light.
Collected and exhibited worldwide, I am taking the art world by storm.
I am a game changer.
I am an innovator.
MY MISSION IS TO KEEP TELLING THE TRUTH - THROUGH PAINT & INK.
Every day my art expands to new heights. Every day presents new opportunities. May my art and words inspire you to discover and manifest what your heart needs most.
