Tamara Diaz works as both a clinical therapist and independent artist. She was born in New York City, but also lived in Barcelona, Spain for 5 years. She has strong Cuban roots on her father’s side, while her mother's family are holocaust survivors. The result is a powerful spirituality with a deep respect for the struggles and beauty of both cultures. Other inspirations include her, travels, music, the children with whom she works, and the people/energy with which she surrounds herself.Much of Diaz’s’s work depicts a spiritual vision of a better place, represented in the style of Pop Art. The various mediums she uses include markers, acrylics, pencil, pen and ink, collage, and computer illustration. Because of the intensity of Diaz’s clinical work, painting helps her to relax. Many of Diaz’s pieces have originated from painful places, but become transformed into an optimistic realm through her choices of color. Always prepared to let loose the creative energy inside of her, she never leaves home without a drawing journal.Tamara Diaz’s dream is to travel to her homeland, Cuba, to meet her family and reconnect with her Cuban roots.
