Welcome to A Painted Garden- a space where art, nature, and emotion bloom together.

Hi, I’m Mireya

My work is rooted in feeling-the calm of a breeze, the warmth of the sun, the color of orange roses, a cup of tea, painting… all the simple, magical moments that bring me peace.

My art is handcrafted with lots of texture and color. Hopefully that warmth transpires through my work to you.

A Painted Garden is my journal of wandering through my creative life and the lessons I learn. There’s room for all of us!

I paint the way gardens make me feel.

Simplify, slow down, be kind. And don’t forget to have art in your life – music, paintings, theater, dance, and sunsets. -Eric Carle
