Tamiko Braun is a Munich-based, mixed-media artist with a love for vibrant colors, textures, and unexpected additives like sand, coffee, and marble dust. As a process-oriented artist, she focuses on creating layers in her work, stripped away to reveal designs of varying depth underneath. Fluent in Japanese, English and German, Tamiko also has over 20 years of consulting, strategic planning, business development and marketing experience with international technology companies. 

Just a Southern California "beach girl" at heart, Tamiko shares how a health scare made her re-evaluate her intense, international travel-oriented career and reconnect her to art. Tamiko shares how she grew her art practice, developed commission work and learned to trust her intuitive practice.  As Tamiko says, "It's never too late to reset."
