- About Me
- From the time I was 3 years old, I have expressed an uncanny artistic ability to "move" paint. A graduate in fine arts and design from Pepperdine University, I have enjoyed national and international acclaim for my extraordinary use of color, light, and movement
Now living in Sarasota, I travel nationally and internationally, painting commissioned murals, canvases and faux surface treatments for individuals, businesses and organizations. From 1996 - 2003, I worked as an artist, muralist and journeyman faux-finisher in Bali, Indonesia where my clients included the likes of Cafe Lotus, Rioshi Japanese Restaurant and the Radisson Bali Hotel. My artistic finishes now also grace the walls, trim, ceilings and fountains at the renown Paris Hotel-Casino, the Mirage Hotel-Casino and the Venetian Palazzo Hotel-Casino Resort, all in Las Vegas, Nevada where I spent 4 years as a journeyman painter, muralist and faux-finisher.
Best described, my artworks are a cutting-edge combination of realism, surrealism and visionary art images. My life's mission focuses on the design and eventual implementation of a vertical farming mega-structure and a first-of-its kind, self-sustainable, eco-architectural “archeology” that has the potential to provide a limitless source of food, energy, and livelihood for millions of on-site residents.
My fine art canvases and faux-finish surface treatments adorn the homes of such recognizable celebrities as actor Dustin Hoffman and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, South Africa and numerous other diplomats and dignitaries worldwide. Clients, decorators, contractors and collectors call me a "master" at my craft and credit my images, murals, faux-finishes and architectural concepts as having healing properties.
As an artist-born, I am frequently reminded of how life is not all that it appears to be. It’s much more than appearance. In this sense, artists are really just tools, toys that Divine uses to express and impart Its needed information to the three-dimensional realm we occupy as reality. Artists are thus messengers for Divine on infinite aspects of Itself.
If there is anything I can do to forward your interest in the creating, purchasing or understanding of fine art and design, please do not hesitate to call on me. My email address, web sites and cell phone number are listed below for your convenience.

- The things I like most about the Sarasota/Manatee area
- The climate, the art scene, the opportunities here, and the tropical lushness -- all are quite a welcome change from the Las Vegas wasteland where I spent the past 4 years painting faux images of the tropics in murals, sky ceilings, and elaborate surface treatments that grace several of the colossal, big name, Las Vegas Strip hotel-casinos.
- My Interests & Hobbies
As a shamanic healer, spiritual guide and direct intuitive, I came into the world seeing auras and recalling vividly my former "Home World." In a near death experience (NDE) that took place in 1976, when I inadvertently drove my motorcycle off a cliff in northern California, I was pronounced dead for close to three hours. During that respite, I revisited my Home World and lived there for 155 vital, healthful and productive years. I then came back into my body here on Earth as an orderly in the morgue was zipping me up in a body bag.
My mission in this second chapter of my life is to unite individuals in an intimate and personal way with their divine truth -- that truth being that we are all divine eternal beings having a human experience, not the other way around.
Much of what I share may at times seem radical from the standpoint of normal belief systems and teachings on a pragmatic, spiritual and etheric basis. It appears radical because of the starting point, from which I guide people through their personal journeies to awaken to the Higher Self: "Heaven on Earth" can only be accomplished if we already know the heavenly experience. Thus, my guidance brings people to the understanding that each of us indeed does know; we have all come from the same source, which is divine (i.e., heaven).
My healing modalities include:
• Reiki
• Spiritual Awakenings
• Altered State Experiences
• A Course in Miracles
• Color and Movement Techniques
• Art Classes & Art therapy
• Aura Energy Consultations
• Aura Energy Drawings and Portraits
• Q & A: 2012 and Beyond
• Spiritual Counseling for Individuals and Groups
• Medicine Card Life Purpose Readings (i.e., What You're Here to Do)
• Murals, Fine art canvases, Faux-Finishing and Trompe L'oeil
• Unique Interpretations of Ancient Traditions using crystals, Tarot cards, found objects and the like

I am so disappointed. I am living hand to mouth these days and have no allowance for Spiritual growth unless I do it myself for a while. I hope to one day meet you and share universes. Do you do barter? I do emotional transformation work.
bright Blessings
Annie
Hope I could meet you soon, and Happy Holidays to you as well!
