“Since my childhood, creative work felt like a home and refuge to me- I’ve observed deep feelings of pleasure and content while engaging in artwork or creative projects.
Viewing beautiful art may spark some strong emotions in me, sometimes close to ecstasy. I am curious to investigate the origins of human aesthetic pleasure by engaging with the OCA.”

Background and creative history : Following about 20 years involved in multiple creative projects & business entrepreneurship, I had the chance to gain broad spectrum practical experience in multiple mediums : Painting, illustration, sculpting, puppet making, costume / set design, sculpture, pottery, graphic art & web design.
I’m strongly influenced by the natural world’s versatility, and infinite beauty. I try to manifest this richness of life, abundance and color in my own art work.
My personal values and spirituality are based on thankfulness, kindness, appreciation and celebration of life, love and existence. I’m usually shy, and need to feel welcome in order to open up.
I’m somewhat witchy and have experience the summoning of people or elements into my life through visualization, wishing, drawing and other manifestation techniques ( strictly white magic and positive vibes ).
I just enrolled as a creative arts student with the OCA, in order to expand my creative practice, perspectives and art work. Visit my portfolio page: http://danco-art.space/
Reasons for joining the OCA and what I hope to achieve from my course:
- Learn new ways of expanding my creative thinking, motivation and visual expression skills.
- Find interest and feels inspired by the subject / course materials.
- Explore my connection to my art work and research into my emotional process.
- Create new connections and get involved in interesting projects through the OCA student network.
