Life Coach & Principal Artist
Massachusetts native, Mary "Mira" Wernig began selling customized art door to door before she was 10 years old in her Hyde Park and Roslindale neighborhoods. She won community and scholastic awards in art as a child and as an adult in photography. She was taught fine arts under the direction of Sister Nanine Tuller at St. Clare Central High School where she also majored in graphic design and minored in theater arts. Mira attended The School of the Museum of Fine Arts summer program for High School students. She graduated from Eastern Nazarene College, Quincy with an AA Degree in Business while working at Benjamin Healthcare Center in Mission Hill. It was here that she saw how the work of Lulu Linda Joli-Bollinger, art therapist featured in the film, I Remember Better When I Paint, positively impacted the residents, how their faces lit up, confidence grew, as they had their work displayed in the gallery or in their rooms. Mira went on to get a Bachelor of Science in Healthcare Management / Leadership and a Master of Science Human Services from Northeastern University. As a young mother of 4, Mira started the side business "Vision Art & Design" doing creative freelance work and business support projects. While pursuing professional careers as an EA, Director of Training and Education, Life Coach and Regional HR Manager, art found its way intertwined in each role. From creating intergenerational programs, to providing creative life coaching and eventually teaching painting herself, art remains a passion and drive.
Mira currently lives in Natick, Massachusetts.
