One of a handful of contemporary artists who virtually “paint with paper,” Tanya Mikaela’s collages express her spiritual journey, her passion for life and the allure of the Divine Feminine. By tearing and layering reclaimed paper she’s developed an organic freedom of expression that continues to evolve. Tanya credits her daily meditation and affirmative prayer practices as being the gateway to her creative process. Every day of creativity begins by connecting to Spirit, allowing her to lead from her heart and get out of the way – trusting what wants to come through.
In the same way that Tanya channels her collages, she also creates healing artifacts from driftwood, clay, crystals and assorted findings. Her Wisdom Wands, Wise Women and Talisman incorporate a variety materials into upcycled and wearable works of art.
It is Tanya’s firm belief that we are all creative beings! As a Spiritual Practitioner or “soul-coach,” she loves to assist others in discovering their own passion in order to release their innate creativity. She’s just completed her first book, The Circle – A Woman’s Guide to Joy, Passion and Authenticity, guiding communities of women to a joy-filled and inspired life.
