I started out with 2D animation in 2017 and switched to 3D in 2018, just to mix things up. Took a break, but lockdown in 2020 got me back into it—and I discovered a real interest in UI/UX and design overall. Now I’m combining all these skills, recently adding app development in Flutter to the mix, and working toward building projects that look great, feel smooth, and are actually useful. 💚

Hello! I’m Chelsea.

As an artist, I have a passion for helping others unlock their creativity and heal through expression. After working as a technical writer for 40+ hours each week and experiencing severe burnout symptoms, including being hospitalized for debilitating stomach pain, I’ve lived and learned the power of healing through creative expression. My art has become far more than works that hang on walls, and instead, is a living practice that fuels my well-being and health.

In 2020 I began leading group workshops teaching free-flow painting as a well-being modality. Since I have combined these practices with somatic healing and trauma healing tools I’ve learned to begin developing a more comprehensive framework for cultivating wellbeing through creative expression.

I’m currently developing programs designed to help high-achieving solopreneurs and entrepreneurs heal burnout and revive the passion they started their businesses with. It’s my mission to share creativity as a healing and mental health support modality we can all access to feel our most alive and thrive.

A little about me, personally, and the art I create:

I love plants, animals, food, and creativity. Art is so much more than something we hang on our walls. To create and express is to allow life force to move through us. The whimsical animal and nature paintings I create are intended to light up our souls and bring nature’s medicine into our homes. My personal training in BioGeometry (a science of environmental harmonizing and qualitative physics) also inspires my work.

As a Fort Collins native, I’m proud to call this beautiful land home, where I enjoy gardening barefoot, cozy evenings by the fire with my love, and playing with my precious dog, Bubba Blue. Traveling across the states, volunteering in the Amazon rainforest, growing up on a farm, and still a farm kid at heart, my biggest inspiration is nature and the miraculous life force that illuminates us all.
