Liana Van de Water, Room 205A

With a bachelors in Studio Art from University of Colorado and a Master of Arts in Expressive Arts Therapy, Liana uses paint to create cosmic, nebula inspired paintings that transcend gravity and the concrete limits of the mind. She also works as a therapist at Lynn Community Health Center, where she uses art to treat depression, trauma, and anxiety, along with helping clients navigate inner battles, reduce unhelpful defenses, and to find lost parts of themselves. Her art is another reflection of the different energies present in this world, the darkness and the light, and the powerful ways they manifest. She has shown work in Vermont, Colorado, and now Massachusetts, and is excited to be participating in her first year at the Lydia Pinkham Open Studios.
