“All artists are a little bit crazy!” “Artists are different.”
Over the years, I’ve chuckled when someone looked at my whimsical works and noted the difference in our personalities.
Yes, artists are programmed differently, and most of us rejoice that every waking moment is a gift! Whether soaking in a sun-drenched street scene or admiring an alignment of overhead pelicans or noting subtle color differences in a landscape, an artist’s eyes never rest!
When living in Costa Rica, I lived immersed in nature and marveled at the beauty that surrounded me. I was also intrigued that most of the handmade products I bought were made in Ecuador. Hammocks, pottery, linens, masks – Ecuador, Ecuador, Ecuador. From my first exploratory visit, Ecuador stole my heart! I now divide my time between Ecuador and Central America, and I look forward to exploring more of South America.
Although you cannot step inside my studio from your vantage point, this site will give you a glimpse into the life of the zeebra. Hopefully you’ll emerge with a lighter heart!
Thanks for stopping by! Z
