About
I am certified to teach Zentangle art and as an art practitioner. My passion is to teach art to heal one’s heart from challenging lives. I raised my son with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy and my business is dedicated to his legacy. My life was certainly challenging and I created art to help me cope. I want to pay it forward to show how art can be healing. I love to teach at your home with friends around a dining room table. I will help you relax by creating tangles with your friends socializing and relaxing. As an art practitioner I can teach art workshops at residental senior centers and residential centers for the physically and mentally individuals and their caregivers as well.
It is me great satisfaction when a student is enjoying the process of any form of art I teach. I enjoy teaching knitting, crochet, scrap booking, mixed media art, embroidery, needlepoint and Zentangle art.
If a student leaves my workshop with a smile on their face, then I know I accomplished a good deed for them.
I know creating art heals the heart. I am known as the healing artist.
