Inspired to share and weave my life experiences through the Art of Tea,

led to the birth and growth of ARTNZEN.

​

In traditional Chinese Gong Fu Tea Ceremony, we sit before a being offering the five elements – Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. These elements combined nourish the mind, body, and spirit and bring our beings into alchemical alignment. By accepting this gift and participating in ceremony, we connect to Universal awareness, which is a channel to all beings everywhere.

​

I celebrate the beauty and bliss of life through sharing fine tea with good company. The essence of tea is simplicity, a gift that can be received by all.

         

Whether you sit with yourself, serve others, or are being served, 

it allows for complete surrender to the present moment — 

to Be Here Now.

​

Through sharing the practice of Gong Fu Tea Ceremony – I am given the opportunity to transmit my life experiences, offer the knowledge of my many teachers, share the love, laughter, and light of my ancestors, and bestow the wisdom of Ming Yi Wang from whom I’ve learned ancient teachings of Buddhism, Taoism, and the Art of Tea.

​

ARTNZEN represents a collective of artists who curate beautiful tea experiences for every occasion to unify the collective to share in the splendor of the arts, fine tea and good company.
