ABOUT DIANA
Diana’s art career began unexpectedly. Despite a background in Psychology, Social Work, Special Education, Spiritual Counseling and Alternative Healing, she was drawn to take a workshop on opening one’s creativity. She was instantly overcome with a deep desire and passion for artistic expression. She passionately began exploring various mediums such as acrylics, watercolor pencil, watercolor and airbrush with acrylic. She moved to Boulder, Colorado in 2005 and discovered pastels. This medium took center stage in her life and she has continued exploring deeper and deeper ways of expressing herself through this rich, sensuous media.

ARTIST STATEMENT
I explored several artistic modalities, looking for an expression that would touch my heart and soul and give a voice to how I see and feel about the world. Once I was introduced to pastels, I knew I had discovered that expression. Working with this visceral and tactile medium has offered me a direct hands-on experience. I am able to merge with both the process and the art form itself. My choices in subject matter come from an innate love of the Divine. Whether creating a landscape, a still life or a floral image, my love for Mother Nature and Her endless gifts can shine through and speak their own magic. My continuous goal is to discover and demonstrate what is truly extraordinary in the simple and ordinary displays of life, be that real, imaginary or a little of both.
