Photograph of Silk Fibers--Where it All Begins
"As an artist, I love working with soy silk. It is not only produces
vibrant colors on the working surface, but thematically, the pieces
are developed after the silk is applied. Because there are tiny fibers,
the silk has a mind of its own. I am always surprised to see the
designs that emerge."

Artist's Corner
For many people, getting in touch with their creative selves is as important as breathing air. That is why I created "Art Is Real"--AIR, for short. If you are one of those people who would like to begin producing your own art, take a deep breath and begin!
Art can be a vehicle for uplifting you emotionally and spiritually. We all have our own story and art can provide a way for you to tell yours. All you need to begin is a desire to express yourself.
Creating art is a tremendous exercise in self-worth. It says to the world, "I am here." As soon as you make something, you will be in the flow. And the flow keeps flowing...
