The artist behind Green Goodies is a self-taught painter, livestreaming creator, and former educator whose work centers on creating a culture of consent through portraiture. She began painting as a personal healing practice—one that evolved into a communal ritual of care, collaboration, and visibility.

​

Her ongoing project, The Garden of 1000 Faces, is a global portrait series built on a simple yet radical act: asking. Every portrait begins with an invitation and honors the subject’s autonomy. Rather than capturing likenesses, she co-creates moments of presence where people feel truly seen—on their own terms.

​

She paints live and often at night, inviting viewers into her creative process in real time. This transparency dissolves barriers between artist and audience, transforming painting into shared experience. Whether streaming online, teaching in art museums and community centers, or experiencing the world through plein air painting, her mission remains the same: to help people feel safe, valued, and empowered to take up space.

​

Through bold brushwork, vivid color, and intentional dialogue, she resists perfection and celebrates vulnerability. Her work is not just about what is painted—it’s about how, why, and with whom. Every canvas is a conversation. Every stroke is a gesture of care.

Through color, care, and consent, she invites all of us to co-create a more compassionate world.
