Hi I'm Claire, an artist who transitioned from working in the animation and entertainment industry at companies like Universal Studios, Hasbro, Amazon, and Netflix to following my own creative path. Now, I specialize in hand-drawn Journey Maps and traditional portraits, each one crafted to capture the unique stories of individuals and couples. Whether it’s a personal journey map showcasing career milestones and achievements or a couple’s map that traces their story from first date to wedding day, I make each piece truly one-of-a-kind. Every map also includes custom portraits, adding an extra personal touch. Perfect for weddings, anniversaries, graduations, and life’s biggest moments!

The Artist's Way
Guided Groups

with Barbara Howlin

Ready to take aligned action toward new flow, play and creativity?​

But limiting beliefs still holding you back?​

Need some community and intuitive guidance to open?

 

Our Artist's Way Guided Group can help. This 12-week adventure changed my life in large, definitive ways. As I suggested it to people over the years, many have started it once, twice... Hell, ten times. But they didn’t finish or commit to it all. The reason for these false starts is because we’re doing very provocative work. We often need a little loving support and community.

​

That's why I began the Artist's Way Guided Group Experience. Together, we can recover the freedom in our creativity. Be held accountable in pushing past our limiting beliefs, fears, self-sabotaging ways and onwards. If you're interested for a future session, message away below. We always have an expansive, fun time.

Sean Hemeon
Artist

Sean Hemeon is an artist living and working in Los Angeles, CA. He is a self-taught accomplished painter whose work draws from various sources, including the founding New York School of expressionistic artists and contemporary culture and work as a performer. "I paint with energy. I paint with emotion. I paint with impact. For me, painting isn't much about what is represented but how it is painted. It is an experience captured. A still life of an emotion. Art is one of the sources through which the soul expresses itself and inspires others. But to express art thoroughly, one must have the inner emotions opened thoroughly. And, that, is what's put on the canvas.”

Prints and Original Contemporary Expressive Abstract Art for the Free Soul! And now, introducing Sean Hemeon Studio products inspired by the Art.

Tori Socha
New Artist New Feelings

I've always considered myself an artist - but mainly one who coaches and supports others in the creation of art. A longtime television and digital media executive, I had the privilege of empowering the shows and creators I wanted to develop. But once I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Breast Cancer in the summer of 2022, I did not know how to channel the emotions and process the grief I was experiencing. It was then that a friend led me to discover painting, and I haven't stopped since.
I am thankful and blessed to be in remission, and I am opening this shop with extreme fear, putting my work on display for the first time since recovery. But I hope some of these pieces help others FEEL, too. A portion of my quarterly sales will be donated back to Susan G. Komen For The Cure.​

I’m a performer by trade and a wedding enthusiast in my spare time. I accidentally spend most of my time at weddings I’m invited to making sure every little moment is captured— and when I realized this is something I could turn into a business, I jumped at the chance.

Jordan An
Glassblower

My name is Jordan An and I am a glass artist located in the Pacific Northwest. I do both glassblowing and flameworking, and I particularly like to make functional pieces, as I like the idea of creating things people will use in their everyday life. But I also make small glass figurines that can be worn as pendants. I’m also a strong believer in surrounding yourself with pretty things that make life a little more fun, even if that means slowing down to handle fragile things with care.
