Eva's artistic journey began at a young age and was nurtured through regular visits to galleries and museums. Initially, she started with watercolors, but her passion for art has since evolved to include oil paints, acrylics, and mixed media.
​
Eva's unique technique involves painting in layers. Each layer is carefully crafted, incorporating messages of love, hope, and healing intricately woven into the artwork. This process results in spiritually infused pieces that inspire hope and transformation.

Utilizing my artistic skill, my focus has transitioned from digital design to canvas, exploring new media to express my contemporary visions.
Often, the pieces reflect a fusion of cultural appreciation and personal interpretation of stories and celebrations, aiming to create universal themes that resonate while inviting personal interactions. It is intended to evoke a profound sense of whimsical satisfaction when displayed. The stories told reflect meaningful relationships with nature and humanity.
The joy deepens when the journey is shared with an audience, where the piece invites connections to be enhanced.
Born in Sioux City, Iowa, my connection to art runs deep. It was nurtured by a family legacy, Philomene Bennet. She was a key figure in establishing the Kansas City Artist Coalition in 1976; she centralized and championed the work of countless female artists. Her talent and breadth of work inspired our family and laid the foundation for my creative pursuits.
My artistic journey began in high school and college. Starting with welding and woodworking, the journey continued when I found Adobe Creative Suite. It was a very useful tool in business. Digital media transformed the way graphics influenced stories. Numbers and pictures jump out and can explain an organization’s “cause.” Graphics and visual design were a necessity and hobby. This early exploration into three different types of art honed my skills and deepened my appreciation for art’s transformative power.
