About

    I am a mother, a wife, a visionary artist, a new paradigm business woman, a dreamer, and a firm believer in the ability to turn dreams into reality! 

I have just finished my first children's picture book called Om Baby, Child of the Universe which will be published this April 2010. Just in time for Earth Day! Om Baby is printed on recycled paper with soy based inks. A tree will be planted for each Om Baby book made. Om Baby is a superhero for the planet, for love, and for world peace.

Peace on earth is my dream for reality,

Story Behind The Book

Om Baby was inspired by the birth of my son Octavius. After my son was born I quickly realized that my career as a metal smith artist would be put on hold as it required too many hours working in a studio away from home. I wanted to do something that would work well with being a new mom, something that was meaningful, and something my son would be proud of when he grew up. I watched the documentary called "The Secret" and it inspired me to ask the question: "What next?" The very next day I received the answer. I was nursing my son, and I had a vision. Later on that day I drew my vision on paper and from that moment the character Om Baby was born. I was doing some research for my book and realized there were very few books or characters for children that represented the things I believe in. I decided that I would make the books that I wanted my son to read and create a superhero that represented the ideals, morals, and values that I cherish and hold dear. I feel that there is a need for Om Baby everywhere! I believe that we all have special gifts and talents that are meant to be shared with each other. I know that being a mother is my spiritual path and blessing. I feel it is my responsibility, path and purpose to bring Om Baby to the world and that this is my way of bringing change, healing, and hope to children, families and to the world.
