There is a natural curiosity that leads me to seek answers and inspiration in the exotic as well as the mundane. My personal experiences weave their threads into my artwork… shapes, themes, colors, textures, words… they all are my language to express what flows through me. As a self-taught artist, I work in all mediums and take pleasure in experimenting with new techniques and combinations. Being an “outsider” artist has allowed me to create without limitations, led by my own intuition and drive.

I am privileged to be a friend and student of Barbara Cordts, living master and spiritual teacher residing here in Asheville. Through the work with her since 1998, my understanding and appreciation of the nature of life has deepened tremendously and I am profoundly grateful for the growth and support Barbara and the Open Door community continue to offer.

It is my passion and privilege to share my experience with others on their path. My mission is to help individuals find joy working within the perfect imperfection of the universe… discovering the unique wisdom and creativity that lives in each person, and helping them realize ways to bring that perfect creativity into their daily lives. Life is beauty-full. Blessings, Damaris
