Padme (b.Megan Sievert) was raised as a global nomad, attending international schools in Zambia, Pakistan, Norway, Venezuela, and Hungary.  Her career began in public service through the Peace Corps and after a decade of humanitarian efforts working to improve healthcare in Malawi, education in Ethiopia, and orphan care projects in Nicaragua, she landed in D.C. coordinating international programs for the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.

Padme since received her spiritual name during sacred training in meditation, mantra, and yoga in the Himalayas where she became certified as a Sivananda yoga teacher. This ancient practice helps to purify the mind, body, spirit, to accelerate the ascension process, and connect deeper to the Divine within. After this remembering, Padme took a Quantum Leap, leaving the office cubicle life to manifest transformational freedom. She now lives in the creative flow at the intersection of painting, yoga, meditation, and travel. She offers Healing Arts workshops and retreats, sharing yogic practices while taking people through the process of making sacred art. Padme is also available for transformational coaching through private sessions.

Padme has painted for over 20 years, primarily with acrylics. Her earlier works are abstract whereas her more recent works are in sacred geometry. Limited hand-embellished Giclee prints are available during events or to order on demand.
