She loves to paint with watercolors and acrylics, as well as, draw with pencils and ink. Her subject matter varies according to how her inner self speaks, it could be fantasy, realism, or fun and whimsical. However, her love for portrait painting allows her to express human emotions on canvas and can create powerful connections between the artwork and its viewers.
Meredith realizes that her gifts are given of God an says, "Only through him I am able to create beautiful works of art. The joy of seeing, feeling and creating something amazing and being able to share, makes me feel incredibly blessed!"

The energy of her soul master’s its existence through the paint, the pencil, the fabric or the jewels.
