About her Art

Artist Statement:  I AM CARRIER OF THE COLOR AND THE LIGHT

My Gift and Service to Humanity is Co-Creating ArtWork Beings with SPIRIT!

I AM a 61 year old Visual Artist in St. Paul, Minnesota, U.S.A.

I have been Creating Art for 43 years and I have been Manifesting out of my current studio for the past 29 years.

My ArtWork Beings are Visual, Vibrational forms of LOVE, that are extensions of ME, just as I AM AN EXTENSION OF SOURCE!

These Creations are not only very much Alive and Conscious, but they are also Dimensional Portals.

It is My Intention to be of service to LOVE, only LOVE, by contributing the Visual Harmonic to our Collective Fractal Pattern of Wholeness!
