My Story
I am an art educator, mentor and speaker hired by creative professionals of all ages to help them succeed in their dreams. I founded Native Studio Art in 2015 after leaving a 20-year career in the human service industries.
While teaching others about my journey as an artist, I realized that our system sets us up for failure. It has become my mission to create a journey with learners that are entirely unique to what they're thinking and doing instead of what's been done before.
What I Believe
We are all masters at something, we are just not aware of what? Sometimes we think developing our art is important but most times its not the art at all. Up until now, I was always curious about what people thought and why they believed in certain things. It wasn't until I studied Psychology that I realized everyone has their own outlook on life, which is shaped by how they were raised or experiences in life.
These beliefs create the story of one's life. What we believe becomes our reality; it can be empowering if you keep your goals high enough to reach them! But there are some beliefs that hold us back from new opportunities because we're too afraid to explore new possibilities (such as dreams).
My Mission
I am here to help you get from where you are now, all the way up that mountain.
If you are ambitious and committed to your dream, I provide one-on-one coaching sessions with a blend of Indigenous teachings and self-growth techniques so my clients can make positive change in their lives.
I know what they need because it has worked for me!
1-2-1 Instruction
Native Studio Art is a friendly way to change the color in your paint tray and change brushes you use! It's simple, direct self-discovery. Have you ever wondered what your strengths are?
Have no fear, because 1-2-1 instruction will help get to the bottom of it all. You'll discover new opportunities and skills that can take off in any direction!
Youth Development
The goals of youth development programs promote positive learning environment, even when seeking to prevent problem behaviors.
Youth who are well prepared for the future can better navigate adolescence in healthy ways and be more likely successful later as adults. By fostering personal growth activities in self-exploration; like confidence building skills, communication, and teamwork.
Classes
Helping you to live your unique and greatest life
Visual Art- Painting, Drawing, Sculpture
Whether you are an artist or not, a beginner, or an advanced artist our courses are designed around where you want your journey to begin in the arts.
Indigenous Art
Indigenous art tells the story of our land, from its ancient past to what it means for us now. Indigenous people are able to express themselves and their culture in an honest way that is lost on many other cultures because they don't have any preconceived ideas about how something should look or sound like - this freedom allows artists a sense of adventure as well!
Walking In Power
Self-development techniques for people to do great things by providing them with strength, confidence and courage using the basis of art to navigate through life's journey in order that they might find a sense of fulfillment after learning about themselves on this path called "success."
Inspiring Stories
“Lakota just drew this. All because of your positive reinforcement.”

“I had such a good day today. A lot of realizations and new directions in our 2nd last week of Walking In Your Power. I never realized until reflecting today just how much this program has empowered me to face obstacles, I had been in fear of for over a decade. Everything is all starting to piece together and make sense; it is such a great experience. J”
