About

I have been an artist all my life, and my art has explored many forms. At each phase, I am led in deeply by bodily sensations that compel me to create: I can do nothing else but follow.

I began singing harmony to Broadway musicals, standing on my head on the couch listening to my parents’ 33 rpm records, and later in Mrs. Eisen’s grade school chorus. I can’t remember a time when I was not singing or listening to music. I started ballet at six, took up charcoal drawing at ten, acting and piano at eleven, guitar and writing at thirteen, progressing to rock and roll, mandalas, the meditative, healing, communal living, parenting, transformational, and copy editing arts, and lately photography.

The spirit of Mother Nature in all her manifestations has always been my muse. I add to that, New York City, architecture, and my family–as they all manifest through reflection and light. It all is art. The deepest expression of the Self in sharing one’s unique identity and view of the world.

A hallmark of my personal journey was setting off early on my spiritual quest for meaning and purpose in life. A true child of the sixties, in 1971 I became a founding member and 15-year resident of an intentional community called The Farm. Now on third generation, although many of us have left the land, we are richly and deeply connected–”…through births, and deaths, life passages…” For more, watch this video trailer: The Farm–A documentary film by Rena and Nadine Mundo (Coming soon…)

My work ranges from somatic and headache coaching and transformational bodywork (sites listed in my blogroll) to freelance and educational writing, copy editing, and proofreading. Under the page tabs here, you will find writing and editing samples, my writing/publishing resume, and some photography. I am currently writing a body-mind, self-care book for headache sufferers about how to transform headaches.

This blog is a place for me to share my artistic facets, and arts and media-related articles and stories that I find interesting. I hope you enjoy it!
