WELCOME TO EYESPY STUDIOS

It has been an interesting journey to arrive at this point in my artistic career. At the tender age of 17, with no artistic experience and only the instinctive belief that Art would somehow save me from the terrifying Nothingness inside me after growing up in war ravaged Rhodesia, I dived into doing a B.Fine Arts. Institutional art bred the mentality, that if your art isn't on a par with Van Gogh & Picasso you are a failure and many in my art class didn't touch a brush for decades afterward. I kept my "serious aka controversial" artwork private but experimented with fun interactive pieces, with different mediums and surfaces ranging from people to walls and many things in between! There was always something missing, Art for Art's sake did not fulfill me on an everyday basis. After watching my daughter 'Arting" freely from 2-16 years of age and then teaching at Painting with a Twist for 5 years, I slowly came to realize that what I had passionately believed to be true for me in fact applied to everyone ! Art is meant to be for EVERYONE, its a personal language to connect our inner self to the outside world. It isn't right or wrong, it isn't at all important if someone else likes our work or not, some will hate it and others love it even more passionately... Just like our personalities it's okay not to be "everyone's" flavor! Now, while I'm still dedicated to producing my own art I find my greatest fulfillment comes from helping others find, believe in and express their own Inner voice. I take great joy in finally being able to have my own studio and invite you to come paint with me!! Join me at EyeSpy Studios for a fun, relaxing, and well rounded artistic experience.
