my name is abigail.
hello
I am an avid creator and symmathecist, driven to illuminate and nurture evolving connections. My formal education is in fine art and language, and my lust for knowledge and experience has brought me through the industries of manufacturing, education, retail, and technology - as well as through much of our country's wilderness. Through these contexts, I discovered the power of process and finding the mysterious third way. My daily practice is choosing transformation - that potent space where we learn how to be better at being ourselves.
​
Now, I seek to share that magic with you.​​
​
In all facets of my work, I seek to recapture the initial sense of community and possibility which we all carry in childhood, and to breathe life into the values of reciprocity and right livelihood.
Through my art and consultation, I engage with the creative process as community healing, expansion of consciousness, and a bridge to a better world.
​
We are the ones who bring our vision to reality. We are the ones who build our beloved dreams. Let's collaborate!
