HeartFelArt: Spreading Love and Healing Through Art
Hey! I’m Felicia, an artist who believes in the healing power of creativity. For me, art is more than paint on canvas or lines on paper—it’s a way of giving feelings a voice when words fall short.
My journey as an artist is deeply tied to my own experiences with mental health struggles. There were times when I felt lost, weighed down by emotions that seemed too heavy to carry. Creating became my outlet—each piece allowing me to release pain, explore vulnerability, and slowly rediscover my strength.
Through this process, I learned that healing isn’t linear, but every brushstroke, every image, was a step forward. Art helped me transform my struggles into something meaningful, and in that transformation, I found growth, peace, and hope.
Now, my mission is to share that same light with others. Through my work, I aim to:
-
Express the depths of human emotion
-
Spread love and compassion
-
Encourage understanding of mental health challenges
-
Inspire hope and positivity, even in dark times
Every piece I create carries part of my journey—the pain, the healing, and the resilience—and I share it in the hope that it offers comfort, understanding, and connection to those who may be walking a similar path. Art has been my way of overcoming, and now it’s my way of giving back.
My artistic journey has led me to experiment with many mediums- paint, colored pencil, resin, Photoshop, pencil and more. Each one offers me a unique way to express emotion and bring healing into my work.
Art has always been my way of healing, expressing emotions, and spreading love, understanding, and positivity. My creative journey has been shaped not only by my own experiences but also by the incredible support system that surrounds me—my husband, our two beautiful children, and our two loyal dogs.
They are my heart and my inspiration. My husband’s encouragement, my children’s joy and curiosity, and the unconditional love of our dogs bring balance and light to my life. Their presence reminds me daily of the importance of love, patience, and resilience, and that energy flows into everything I create.
Through my art, I want to offer others a safe space to explore their feelings, find connection, and discover hope. Just as my family and art grounds and uplifts me, I hope my work can inspire and comfort those who need it most.
