(Great last minute news: the projects will be previewed at Spectrum 2015, alongside my piece that will be exhibited at the Nepal collective mural.
I learned all I needed about creating art as a young girl in my grandmother’s garden—where I sat doing what as an adult I call meditating—that quiet spot, became my temple.
Many years passed before I began to birth the creations conceived in my early daydreams. I started to write fiction and poetry, and then my mind exploded into a galaxy of colors, shapes, and, movement, as I started to paint (on surfaces, digitally, and then included digital photography to my artistic spectrum); creating dream worlds that entice observers to travel through my work surface has become one of my key life purposes. My art is representative of the twists and turns we take in the course of our daily lives, and of the awe-inspiring beauty that surrounds us.
My work is my gift to the world, and to everyone who falls in love with it.
I was born in Cuba; and have lived in Spain, New York, Vermont, and Massachusetts. I now reside in Miami, Florida where I work and play at Collazo Art Studio with my artist husband Miguel, three dogs, and a cat named Monkey.
This is a long-overdue project the artist has been sub-consciously creating since her childhood, and one she plans to continue working on for the rest of her life.
Her hope is to create a collective of like-minded men and women creatives to collaborate on a global project that will yield funds through art sales/sponsorships which will be partially donated to improve women’s lives around the globe; as well as provide well-deserved revenue for artists that dedicate their lives to creating thought-provoking, life-impacting works that benefit society at large.

Their Story Matters with Sara Troy and her guest Caprice Hogg aired July 28th
We live in a world of assumption and judgment and we do not look further into what is possible from within ourselves and others. We are all capable of being great we all are given a gift that is our purpose, and no matter what life’s challenge is, we can embrace that path for it is our destiny. Caprice who has Muscular Dystrophy but does not let anything hold her back from the wonderful divine path chosen for her with her art.
Caprice first picked up her paintbrush in 1994 and quickly discovered a hidden talent. She studied with artists Karen Hersey and Keith Smith and soon found herself in a world of colourful oils, shapes, and art techniques. Her insatiable thirst for knowledge of art has become an obsession as Caprice eagerly reads each and every art book she can get her hands on.
In 1998, Caprice’s first solo exhibition gave her the confidence and courage to pursue painting as a full-time career. She has continued to exhibit on an ongoing basis and her works are now in private and corporate collections in Western and Eastern Canada, the United States, Europe, and New Zealand. Caprice works and exhibits her paintings from her Studio Gallery located in Kimberley, British Columbia, Canada.
Caprice prefers selling directly to her clients, as it allows her to get to know the unique people who purchase her work. You are welcome to view Caprice’s paintings at her Studio Gallery in Kimberley, British Columbia.
Caprice feels privileged to be able to use her talent to help others. She has donated several paintings to organizations such as Muscular Dystrophy Canada, Wildsight Environmental Society, In-Definite Arts Society which supports art programs for people with developmental disabilities, and “Reaching E-Quality Employment Services” which assists people with disabilities to find full-time employment. For two consecutive years, Caprice was commissioned by the Variety Club of British Columbia to produce a painting for their annual “Show of Hearts” Telethon to benefit children with special needs. She was also commissioned, along with five other prominent Canadian women artists, to produce a painting for the Canadian Foundation for Women’s Health. Caprice is a strong advocate for the environment, animal rights and natural health, all of which are reflected in her lifestyle.
In 2005, Caprice was honoured by her high school, The Lethbridge Collegiate Institute, with their “Wall of Distinction” Award, along with Olympic gold medal hockey player Billy Gibson. This lifetime achievement award acknowledges career accomplishments and humanitarian efforts. Caprice received yet another honour in 2011, this time from her elementary and junior high school, St. Joseph’s School when she was inducted on to their “Wall of Fame” in Coaldale, Alberta.
Teaching art has become another passion for Caprice. Passing on the knowledge that was passed on to her is certainly an important part of her career. Working with children has been especially rewarding, as their innocence and imagination is inspiring! In 2011, Caprice had a great experience teaching “at risk” teenagers at the Kimberley Alternate School and hopes to do more in the future.
Whenever the opportunity arises, Caprice does venture past her studio door and travels to not only see new landscapes but also to art galleries and museums in Canada and abroad. She finds them most illuminating and maintains a level of inspiration.
Unable to physically walk through forests and climb steep mountains, Caprice calls upon the powers of her imagination to experience their beauty and majesty. Her vibrant colours and bold strokes reflect her strong connection to mother nature. Looking at a Caprice painting is the next best thing to being there!

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Richard Gordon aired July 28th-
What is Quantum-Touch and in how can it heal me?
Quantum-Touch is a method of natural healing that works with the Life Force Energy of the body to promote optimal wellness. Life Force Energy, also known as ‘chi’ in Chinese and ‘prana’ in Sanskrit, is the flow of energy that sustains all living beings.
With two best-selling books and certified practitioners in over 50 countries around the world, Richard Gordon’s goal is to popularize and bring scientific credibility to the field of energy medicine.
Richard’s work appears to redefine what it means to be a human being by demonstrating how powerfully people can accelerate the healing process.
In his latest best selling book, Quantum-Touch -Gordon demonstrates touch-based healing technique that uses the chi of both practitioner and client, bringing them into harmony to allow the body to heal itself.
Quantum-Touch differs from other healing techniques because it does not require long years of study and presents none of the common hurdles of understanding or application; anyone can learn to use it to become a healer, both of others and of self. In this new edition of his best-selling guide, Richard Gordon leads the reader step by step, clearly explaining how to use breathing and body-focusing techniques to raise one’s energy levels.
Once that is achieved, the healer can correct posture and alignment, reduce pain and inflammation, help balance emotional distress, and even heal pets!
Above all, Quantum-Touch can be used in tandem with all other healing modalities, including Western medicine, and its efficacy has been attested to by physicians, acupuncturists, chiropractors, and other healing professionals.
Quantum-Touch teaches us how to focus, amplify, and direct this energy, for a wide range of benefits with surprising and often extraordinary results.
Quantum-Touch is an effective method for reducing back pain, realigning structure, balancing organs, glands and systems, reducing muscle aches, healing injuries, healing burns, and so much more.
Quantum-Touch is easy enough to be learned by children, yet powerful enough to astound physicians, chiropractors, physical therapists, and a host of health professionals.
Richard Gordon, founder of Quantum-Touch Organization, is a visionary and a pioneer. With 37 years of experience in the field of energy medicine, Richard is the best-selling author of ‘Quantum-Touch: The Power to Heal’, now published in 17 languages, and ‘Your Healing Hands – The Polarity Experience’, available in 10 languages.
While attending Christos School of Natural Healing in Taos, New Mexico in the 70’s, Richard discovered the power of working with energies and hands-on healing. This work led to a wide range of further discoveries as Richard began to explore all the energies around his hands. He eventually met an awe-inspiring healer named Bob Rasmussen, who had an extraordinary ability to heal people’s bodies with his hands. Richard began apprenticing with him and this is how his work was born.
Richard founded Quantum-Touch organization more than 16 years ago. The organization currently has more than 1,400 certified practitioners in 50+ countries around the globe. Their vision and mission is to help improve the health and quality of life for many people using simple, easy to learn energy healing techniques.
With his expertise and passion for sharing the message about hands-on healing, Richard has traveled around the globe to speak at medical centers, conferences, and chiropractic colleges. He was faculty at Heartwood Institute and the Holistic Health Institute. Dr. C. Norman Shealy, M.D., Ph.D. (Founding President of the American Holistic Medical Association) endorsed Richard’s work, calling it, “The first technique that may truly allow us all to become healers.”

Wise Health with Suma Nathan and her co/pilot Bill Mackie aired May 12-18th
This week Suma and her special guest Bill “Smok’n DAWG” Mackie talk about the root cause of pain. Which surprisingly is actually caused by our diets! You are probably wondering how the food you eat has anything to do with the pain you experience from an accident you had in your childhood, but it does… As Bill explains pain is the bodies natural defense mechanism to alert the brain that there is something going wrong internally. Pain is the culmination of multiple factors that result in telling the body to stop doing what you are doing to prevent us from doing irreversible damage to your body.
Food is the one thing that everyone consumes on a regular basis and the ingestion of food triggers a complete series of biological responses within the body. When the food we eat can not be processes correctly, the the body becomes stressed. The more we ingest foods the we can not process the more stressed the body becomes.As the stress level builds our defense mechanism become more heightened to a point where we become other extremely sensitive to other external influences in life cause the body to react in pain. A simple example we can all relate to is that when we over eat you get severe stomach cramps! What’s really incredible is that virtually everything we experience as pain is directly effected by the foods we eat! With all the genetically modified foods and chemicals that we ingest into our bodies when combined with the sheer volume of food we eat it’s no wonder that we have so many people who suffer from pain. Food is the the root to virtually every major health issue in the industrial world!

For the next next week’s how Suma and Bill will be discussing importance of developing eating habits that will help you reduce the stresses caused by eating. It’s not so much about the foods you eat but more about developing an understanding and an awareness of how the foods you do eat are affecting the way your body is reacting.
