About Me

Subject: "Empowerment"

My art is a very special spiritual gift that I humbly accept and deeply respect.  I could have never imagined all the joy that I have been able to share with people all over the world because of this blessing.

But one of my greatest pleasures has been creating signature images for non-profit organizations enabling them to raise funds for their worthy causes.  Sisters In Business is ALL about empowering women and girls, and that IS so much what I'm about. 

Originally "Empowerment" was conceived as the possible signature image for Girls Inc., Los Angeles, but actually became the signature image for MOSTE, Motivating Our Students Through Education, a mentoring program for African American and Latina middle school girls.  How kismet is it that Tekelia "Googled" [Internet Search Engine] and found me and my art, searching the word "empowerment".
