I am a San Diego native, born and raised, and I bought a home in Oceanside two years ago with my wife. We love Oside and know it's the perfect town for us and we're proud to call it our home. I studied studio art in college and have continued to pursue various media, spray paint art being my favorite for the past couple years. I love graffiti as a public expression and often subversive art form.
One of the engines that drives her art is the freedom to express and communicate. Believing art, at its best is creative, expressionist and emotional, Ehlers describes her art as bold and colorful . She believes that art without emotion is not art, and within everyone, your passions should be applied to that which makes you happy. If you believe in yourself, anything is possible.
