Testimony

My spiritual journey started when I hit my late 20s. I was working in corporate America, in an unsatisfying marriage, and was very disillusioned with my life thus far.
I was drinking my life away every weekend, planning for my next party, NOT MY LIFE.
At about twenty-nine, I got introduced to self-improvement and positive thinking, I got excited! I heard you could have fun and make a living with your God-given talents and abilities, so I jumped in. I went from agnostic to believing in God – but this Jesus thing – I was still very skeptical – which then led me into "New Age" along with self-improvement, all the while reading my Bible as well.
In ’97 I left my life in Boston for NYC and explored what God had for me. I planned to be a voice-over artist. I also got my pictures taken thinking I would do some print modeling and I took singing lessons all the while creating art, just for fun on the side.
I found a small studio in the East Village, which was so fun to live by myself for the 1st time in my life. I would take the next 3 years feverishly journaling and reading a lot of material like; self-improvement, the Bible, new age, and anything in between. I worked in the service industry struggling to make a living. I finally found myself jumping for joy & at the same time distraught with tears…I found God to be a real living being, talking to me and working with me plus at the same time I got a deep revelation of the power of words. But, I also was convinced we were making it “ALL UP.” Because, as I would journal, it would also show up in my life, the good, the bad, and the ugly.
So off I jumped again in ’99, giving away virtually everything! I started to travel and profess the things I wanted to attract into my life, believing infallibly that everything I said and thought would come to pass sooner rather than later.
I ended up maxing out all my credit cards and not being able to pay my hotel bill, so I spent a week or two in the Florida County jail. I bailed myself out, paid my bill…and started over yet again. I traveled back to New Jersey and lived with my family.
By then I had been to enough churches to convince me that it WAS all about Jesus, but I just couldn’t find where I fit. I was super excited about God and truly believed in a supernatural God and that He loved us, healed us, and wanted us to live a full abundant life in everything. I finally got invited to a ‘born again’ Christian Church in NJ where I had been living with my sister and it was there that I raised my hand for Christ in response to an altar call.
So finally honoring the gift I was given...
In 2000, I quite literally ‘ran into’ this brush pen and started drawing, everything I drew came out to be words and phrases because of my deep revelation of the power of words. This is what sparked my specific style of art; so hence the birth of my Art Ministry. I felt as though people who looked at my artwork long enough, the biblical truths contained there, just might be what they needed to heal, COLORME Art Spa became my SILENT ART MINISTRY.
As a born-again Christian, I help people experience the Word of God through art. My hope is that by spending time creatively with Scripture and meditating on the Word, people find the real, true, loving, living God.
I currently own and operate a company called ‘COLORME’ Art Spa. I teach my style of art and help people explore their own inner artists to experience a more joyous fuller purpose filled life.
Using my art, people & organizations have been able to raise money and have fun, at the same time, giving an interesting twist to any party or event. I teach weekly at a local coffee shop in Scottsdale AZ. The group is called Coffee - Art - Dreams - God has a plan for your life - Experience the Word of God in Art!
I travel all over the world graphic recording and teaching at conferences and retreats!
