ToniAnn Eisman Fine Art
About
ToniAnn Eisman
Currently working out of Greater Philadelphia area.
For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to be an artist of some sorts. While the specifics of form have varied over the years, I knew I wanted to create in order to sustain. I was inspired to enter the field of art therapy as a way to blend my interest in the arts and helping others. I have been working clinically for more than 5 years, and continue to create as a way to take care of myself holistically. Originally a painter, I have an interest in all things creative, including glass blowing, ceramics, fiber arts, and illustration. I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. in Expressive Therapies to focus more specifically on clinical research.
In my free time, I love to play video games, thrift clothes, and lay on my floor with my 4 pet bunny rabbits.
