DREAMATIONS STUDIO
HANDICRAFTS BY AMI & SHARON
Ami Kochlany learned about woodturning from his oldest living brother two years ago and has since found an outlet for his abundant energy. He loves to create unique and beautiful pieces of art from nature's trees. He also loves to cook and modify recipes to create new delicious culinary delights. He has been quite good at creating Keto recipes for me.
Sharon Kochlany (Dr. Shar) was a teacher for 43 years. She has a M.Ed. in Special Education and she taught ADHD and SLD children as well as 1st and 4th grade, middle school science, and served as a media specialist. One of the favorite part of her teaching jobs was counseling the students and their parents so that they could establish better family relationships and the students could improve their academic achievement. She has also taught graduate college classes on Exceptional Children, Instructional Technology, and Curriculum and Instruction. As a district technology trainer for administration and school staff, she stressed how technology could be a tool to enhance instructional practices.
Dr. Shar's ex-husband was a naturopathic healer so she learned a great deal about holistic and naturopathic medicine from him and as a caregiver for her mother who had Alzheimers, she learned how to address the many issues associated with this devastating disease. She reads and researches profusely focusing on studies on the brain, memory, ADHD, and nutritional health.
She has always incorporated Arts and Crafts into her teaching having discovered how it is a very effective intervention tool and stress reliever. She retired in 2014 and ever since, she has been seeking a way to still be relevant. She doesn't think that she will ever really retire.
After consuming hours of time watching YouTube videos, she came to the realization that she could help herself to be more relevent by sharing her expertise about ADHD, the brain, memory, and nutrition with others so that they can develop a healthier mind and body resulting in a happier more balanced life. Thus, she decided to become a YouTube creator and do what she does best - educate, mentor, and counsel others.
While watching YouTubes on becoming a YouTube creator and researching the relationship between hobbies like arts and crafts and mental health, she came across videos about Diamond Art Painting and became an avid practitioner of the craft. She especially enjoys using her creativity to modify diamond art paintings designs to enhance them. She is an OCD-perfectionist, which results in beautiful art pieces for your benefit.
