Art, in all it's forms, has helped me heal, grow, and enhance my life.

Growing up in upstate NY, I spent my time journaling, writing poetry, and playing sports. This continued when I traveled west to Oregon, then during my seven years in the U.S. Army.

After the military, painting became a way to heal, to give my eyes the beauty they had been lacking for so long.

I am constantly exploring the innate relationship with myself and the world around me and my ever evolving forms of expression.

Dancing, photography, and painting are all part of how I illuminate the world. Everything from war to broken hearts and transforming it all, somehow, into beautiful love.
From my heART to yours. I hope you enjoy!

Love, Dana
