My New Addiction

December 8, 2018 Peta Sklarz

2018! Where did the year go?  I have been reflecting a lot about where I was at the beginning of this year. I know I was in a completely different place.  But where?  I was scared for sure!  Every new […]

My heart and brain disagree

December 1, 2018 Peta Sklarz

Last week was hard. I had conflicting emotions and my inner dialogue would not be quiet.  I felt like there was a parrot in my head repeating all my conversations back to me.  I felt like I was starting to […]

I feel unworthy, but it’s ok

November 3, 2018 Peta Sklarz

I have given up everything.  No alcohol, no toxic relationships, no negative self talk. These were my addictions. These addictions were predictable and safe.  They had a definite pattern.  The pattern started out with me feeling vaguely unworthy and out of […]

The art of the unknown

October 27, 2018 Peta Sklarz

This time last year I  joined a midlife women’s group in search of some answers to my dissatisfaction with life. I was sure that other women my age were struggling too, so I was surprised to find the group only […]

My power is beautiful

October 7, 2018 Peta Sklarz

I can’t choose what life throws at me, but I can choose how I respond to it.  No one can get into my head and tell me how to feel or how to act.  Even though sometimes it feels like […]

What came first, the challenge or the failure?

August 18, 2018 Peta Sklarz

Sometimes I feel like I just want to fail at something, so I set up a challenge and then purposely break my own rules so that I can feel bad about myself. I recently set up one of these challenges […]

ok universe, I get the message!

August 4, 2018 Peta Sklarz

As I walked to the photography studio, my stomach had butterflies and I felt a little nauseous.  Why was I so anxious?  I searched my mind for the cause of my anxiety.  Everything had been going well so there was […]

Moving on

July 28, 2018 Peta Sklarz

When my life first started to unravel I decided the answer was to move to Redondo Beach which is close to Los Angeles.  I had lived there until I was 7 years old and hadn’t been back. But when my […]

I am always right

July 7, 2018 Peta Sklarz

So I have learned an important lesson this week that maybe I should have learned a long time ago, and that is that forgiveness is about me.  I always thought forgiveness meant that I was forgiving someone else for their […]

Am I damaged?

June 9, 2018 Peta Sklarz

Am I damaged?  I used to think that I was, at the very core of me damaged or bad.  And I used to use all my energy to hide my damage to others.  I wanted to appear normal and fit […]

Am I enough?

June 2, 2018 Peta Sklarz

Does anyone care that I am a nerd now?  That I went from happy hours to book readings, margaritas to tea.  That I went from late nights,  to being excited to go to bed early so that I can get […]

Sometimes happiness costs $9.99

April 1, 2018 Peta Sklarz

So, I had this week off my financial job for spring break and my daughter and I flew to Los Angeles at the beginning of the week and had a wonderful time in the LA sun surrounded by beautiful beaches […]

Peta Sklarz, Creative Entrepreneur

All women were born Queens, but we give away our power so freely that no one values it, not even us. My message behind my art is the reclaiming of our energy and power, and being the Queens we were born to be!

I live in Los Angeles California where I work as a finance professional, but my passion is writing and creating art.

My first art show ‘The Queens – Awakening the Feminine Energy within’ was on  July 25, 2019 at Nucleus Gallery in Portland Oregon.

My second art show “LA Queens – the beautiful women of LA’ was on September 21st in Santa Monica.

My 3rd art show was December 18th in Downtown LA. I  was invited to be a part of the RAW –  Natural Born Artists show.

Due to the pandemic my Art Shows are on pause.

I create acrylic paintings, prints, greeting cards and other merchandise (including T shirts).  It is all for sale at my store.
