Eve cultivates divinity within her body through her connection with the Divine Feminine.

Being divine is first being aware of who you are at your core.

For Eve, she has found herself again by dredging through the dark, murky parts--not only to observe it but also to clear it out by acknowledging all that has collected on her spirit through her life, expressing her suppressed sorrows out loud to herself or those she felt needed to hear it. Eve's art reflects her soul; where once she felt alone when in all honesty the only being she needed to unite with was her own self. When she met and accepted herself without all the extra weight of the world, love began to flourish at her core. It now manifests in Eve's art, effortlessly.
