Artist Bio
Alberta Jonikas - Hand dyed silks, acrylics, oils, watercolors

silk scarves
I was raised in Connecticut, then moved to Chicago and then moved to Michigan when I got married. I was widowed young but raised four children in Michigan. In 1995, after my children were grown and moved away to various states, I moved to New Mexico.
I have been a massage therapist for eleven years, doing CranioSacral, Polarity, and various bodywork modalities.
My art is an extension of this same energy, Spirit guided, and done in a meditative state. I see images formed by the pooling of water color. From this start, the finished mixed media piece emerges.
Some say my work is surrealistic, with ancient symbols - I just enjoy what manifests!
