Atmara Rebecca Cloe began her work as a digital artist when she took a few computer classes in the fall of 1995. It was not until the next spring that she was able to get her own computer and really start learning and creating. From then on she has been self taught. She took a few art classes in collage, but never had a lot of success with traditional media -- she had to wait for computer technology to be where it is now to find a medium to truly express her talents.

She says, "My inspiration comes from lots of sources, and ultimately from the Universe, the ‘all that is’ that we are all a part of. Sometimes I see something someone else has done and take the kernel of the idea and let it change and grow in whatever way it wants to. Sometimes I have a vague idea of an image I'd like to create, and I go from there and let it grow. Generally, I feel that there is an energy, another dimensional ‘beingness,’ if you will, that wants to be expressed through me and be given a form in this dimension. Sometimes it guides me very specifically as to what form to create and other times it just develops organically over time. At its best my work is a wonderful form of channeling and I feel so honored to be able to do it. Creating this artwork is an ecstatic experience for me, and I hope that I can use it to help others manifest their dreams as well."

Atmara currently lives in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire were she is constantly inspired by the beauty around her. To reach her, visit her website: New World Creations.
