As these horrific recollections flooded her mind, Nja lost the ability to read, write, speak, or leave her home.  Only the ability to create art remained to help me through this awakening. ART is truly a healing medium, my paintings saved my life,” she said. This was also the beginning of my “Spirited Painting Series.”Ms. Onê has completed a series of books to help everyone recognize, remember, or recapture the creativity that is just one of the concealed innate senses we are all born with, which is so important especially during these trying times.   “I’m living proof that when you embrace your creativity, your future will become limitless” - Nja OnêTo Contact Nja:  [email protected]/NjaArt www.YouTube.com/NjaOneArtwww.LinkedIn.com/NjaOne
