HEALTHY DOS2

 I am excited to announce that I will be joining the Atelier group for Art Of Healing, a program that started at SIY Gallery in 2025! 

“Healthy Dos2 (Dose)” is a 2 hour Art of Healing Workshop for Teens aged 12-18 focusing on the healing aspects of art and discovery of the artists genuine self. Healthy Dos2 is intended to inspire the young artist to find their voice and develop new skills to learn what is most comfortable and most optimal in navigating their art journey. Healthy Dos2 will encourage artists to respect the environment by repurposing and “upcycling”, as well as incorporate music, guided meditation and breathing, and include group projects to promote positive collaboration. 

Starting March 2025

Classes are $40 for 2 hr session, 10 weeks or $50 for 2 hr individual session, 10 weeks

I spent HOURS studying diver footage of the San Francisco Bay and learning about the mystique around the shifting currents and ice cold waters and watched a NatGeo special where they "DRAINED: ALCATRAZ",  I was intrigued and wanted to explore the topography around the entrance of the GGB (Bridge) so with the help of old videos and LYDAR scans of the Bay, I was able to get this PRETTY-ACCURATE depiction of the bridge with the sea level at near peak.  This painting was the most frustrating and emotionally draining piece I hav...
