My name is Piama, and I live in Alaska. I have a bachelor's degree in fine art and some light graphic design experience. I have lived in several places, including the Czech Republic for 11 years, New Mexico, and Alaska twice! Watercolor, oil painting, fabric design, surface design, collage, and most recently mixed media are my favorite forms of art. I spend my time creating, entertaining my dogs, cooking, and quilting. My inspiration comes from many things, including art I've seen while traveling and living abroad, funky color combinations, and interesting shapes.
