'My Story '
I spent my early years in Copenhagen, Denmark in the '60's, and I have been
drawing, painting and creating for as long as I can remember.
My formal training in art began in 1984, and after pursuing a carreer
and raising a family, I eventually completed my BFA with a focus on
painting, photography and sculpture.
Following some years of jubilation, contemplation, and sometimes painful soul searching,
I realized that I could use my creativity as a means to not only express myself but also to raise awareness,
and 'give back' some of what the universe has so graciously given to me.
Keeping this intention in mind, I have been experimenting with a variety of media, using my love for color and contrast, and
intuitively putting together my thoughts and ideas.
Ultimately, I strive to relay a message of living with passion, and the power of
human connectedness and compassion.
As I began displaying my art I became
determined to use my creativity for the betterment of
the world around me and many of the works in the
gallery are dedicated to a variety of charities and causes close to my heart.
I feel my art is most resolved when I have been able to touch another being
and thereby initiate a 'ripple' in the waters of life.
If you like what you are reading and have any input, I would love to
hear your thoughts and ideas.
In peace, Tina.
