a past, repainted.

Hi I'm Angie, and it took me years to realize my struggles with art were actually a symptom of something else. I had trauma from my past that needed healing. I decided to do whatever it takes to finally break free. Eventually my relationship to myself and others improved – and so did my art. I'm sharing what I've learned to help artists like you with healing trauma.
