About Loba

The joy that comes from being in close contact with the earth, experiencing nature’s essential elements and abundant gifts, moving, sensing and hearing sound - color, ebb & flow, rhythm & breath - as well as the gift of tranquility, meditation, deep satisfaction and harmony, all this supports and creates my work.

Painting with the sensibility of a musician, my desire to paint is supported by my life as a flutist working with the breath, the basic vehicle of my work. An abstract visual expression becomes another form of music making, sharing sound that empowers, impacts and heals.

Early on I was led to discover silk as the most fitting medium. It allows the translation of sound into the movement of the paint, the brush, the whole person: movement from the core extending out - breath breathing sound, breathing movement, dancing color. So does silk, it’s rich and luminous texture receives and activates the colors that come together into a moment celebrating the deep texture of life.

Color, art, music, awareness, learning, Loba is an explorer at heart, creating & teaching her gift and passion. She has been an entrepreneur for most of her professional life.

From early on she has created art including fiber art, photography, painting and music. She learned to play the piano at age 4, the concert flute at age 10.

She followed her calling when she stepped into the unknown, came to the United States and made a life for herself.

About painting on Silk

Where two worlds touch

Nurture your Heart

It is in creativity, the space that opens your heart and allows you to access all that you already are and know, that authentic action is brought into forward movement: Possibility. The kind of movement that sustains you, clearly, directed and vital. It can be the thing we may call success, a joyful sense of satisfaction and fulfillment, and a knowing: I AM doing the right thing, albeit messy, the thing that lights me up and I cannot help BUT do.

It can also be the place where we get tangled. Connecting with KNOWING your hearts desire, that which is not quite yet, and nonetheless it already is, and reaching for it, is the path and the necessity to be taken on, practical, spirited, down to earth, connecting the two worlds: Vision & Manifestation.

It is in the gap between those worlds where so much can happen, the list is long, we all have our own personal version of how we get caught in that in-between-place. I have my own as well - which I can share in a different place.

I am here to offer my joy, skill and expertise to you, to get you into the movement of bringing YOUR amazing gift into the place that you are here to share.
