Featured Artist: Cassandra Lockhart

I was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. As a proud mother of eight children, I understand the importance of nurturing, both personal and familial growth. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Human Services, a Master’s degree in Counseling, and a PhD in Metaphysical Science equipping me with a unique blend of knowledge and insights to support others on their journey to wellness and self-discovery. I am retired and living my life full and free.

Moving to Galveston with a transformative decision rooted in both personal and artistic growth. In 2021, my husband transitioned and I felt a profound need for healing and renewal. The coastal landscape offered a sanctuary where the rhythmic sounds of the waves were healing. The water became a symbol of my resilience and reminded me that my life had ebbs and flows much like the tides.

Upon my second week in Galveston, I gained employment at Maguire Dent as a recreational aid where I designed and implemented a summer art program to inspire creativity in the local children and youth. This opportunity allowed me to integrate my passion for art with community engagement.

Shortly afterward, I was invited to display my artwork at the NIA Cultural Center on the Strand. These two experiences confirmed my artistic journey, nourished my spirit, and ignited my imagination, allowing me to channel my emotions into my art. Galveston became a place where the interplay of a new beginning, healing, and creativity would allow my story to be seen through the lens of artistic expression.

Galveston's vibrant and culturally rich community, with its art scene, has captivated me. It has not only provided a canvas for my creativity to flourish but also allows me to offer a unique brand of services and merchandise to the local community.

Creative Spaces of Captured Moments is a welcoming environment, where you can explore the transformational power of art and healing therapies. It provides a space that promotes various therapeutic modalities of relaxation and healing and displays artwork from local artists and vendors. It offers on and off-site photography aimed at capturing moments chosen by our clients. Each visit is a transformational experience that celebrates both artistry and wellness.
