Brenda is a Counselor, public speaker, artist, author, and a full-time student working on a Ph.D. in Psychology. She has a master's degree in business administration (MBA), and a bachelor's degree in English. After spending several years working in Mobile, Alabama Brenda  moved back to her hometown in Southern California and married her high school sweetheart. 

Her paintings blend vivid colors and texture in abstract form. The work is not a literal representation of the subject matter but rather a more complex representation; the colors themselves convey profuse meaning. The poetry and/or motivational prose i.e., words of wisdom is the essence of the art, its breadth, and its life whereas the painting is the vehicle, the means of transport by which to provide the viewer with both the perception and the expression.

Brenda's goal and objective with her art, writing, and teaching is to educate, enlighten, motivate, and create an interest on an intellectual and spiritual level with regard to our fellow humankind. Each creation brings multiple interpretations from the artist's perspective; each viewer will bring a multitude of perspectives; thereby the ultimate effect becomes a phenomenal work of art.
