my dreams with Pablo Picasso

- circa 2007, detail of mixed media on paper from my journals -

He began visiting my dreams in childhood, when I was about five or six years old. I didn't recognize him at first and believed him to be an elf, an elemental, a gnome perhaps?

He brings me gifts - a flower, a fruit, a feather, a crystal...little things.

He brings me ideas and challenges me to manifest the dreams into realities.

"The meaning of life is to find your gift.
The purpose of life is to give it away."
- Pablo Picasso

Brief Bio

CASIMIRA grew up surrounded by art and storytelling with music and poetry playing a part of everyday life. She developed a fascination for textiles and clay since early childhood.

An educational background in art history and romance languages served as inspiration when CASIMIRA began creating poetic wearable pieces from wire, vintage beads and objets trouvés. She has studied in Europe and Latin America and is continuously diving into studio art courses. Private collectors may be found in Europe, Latin America, Australia, Asia, Canada and throughout the United States.

She believes in the healing power of nature, meditates under moonlight and wishes upon stars. She treasures old love letters, dreams of publishing her mountain of journals and of one day living by the sea...

When not painting, sculpting or writing, CASIMIRA is reading, playing with crystals and stones, practicing yoga, volunteering for favorite non-profits and dancing dreams into realities with her best friends and soul mates - her husband and their young children.
