About Me


My Interests

you're perched on the edge of Jaeda's perception

Jaeda DeWalt is a photographer/ digital artist and poet. In "real life" she tends to be a very private, solitary and reclusive creature. She loves unraveling the mysteries of the human spirit. She creates self-portraits, dreamscapes , SURVIVOR ART , spiritual art , fine art nudes, pride art , and art for womyn .

"Images . . . poetry . . .words . . .they can offer us a feeling, an experience and the magical gift of transport.

I want my imagery, poetry and voice to give people a way to express themselves, to offer them a moment of magic and wonder, I want to ignite their imagination, emotions and give them a sense of connection.

It is my hope that my images, poetry and voice can serve to be a connecting factor in the universal thread we share."

Jaeda would like to meet:

People compelled to develop and utilize, the gifts they have been blessed with, to serve others.

Art & photography lovers, fellow creatives, fellow survivors, photographers, painters, poets, musicians, illustrators, actors, dancers, performers, humanitarians, environmentalists, vegans, yoga enthusiasts, spiritualists, tattoo artists and CafePress Shopkeepers. People living their lives with a sense of purpose and passion. People with a strong spirituality. People who value and strive to live with integrity. People who are awake and excited about life! People who are kind, quirky, eccentric, creative, open-minded, witty, sensitive, sweet, dreamy, inquisitive, innovative, visionary and on and on!
