About Devyn
Devyn Mata is the artist and creative behind Mind Over Mata. With a deep love for making things by hand and a passion for emotional wellness, she created this space to encourage others to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and explore creativity as a form of self-care.
Devyn has been creating since she was a kid—always drawn to exploring different art mediums. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Visual Effects and Motion Graphics, which gave her a strong foundation in digital tools like design, editing, and layout—skills she now uses to bring her own handmade-inspired products to life. Over the years, she’s worked as a sip-and-paint instructor, led group activities in senior communities, and even taught kickboxing, giving her a wide range of experience guiding people in creative, fun, and stress-relieving ways.
In recent years, Devyn became certified in Therapeutic Art and Journaling practices—not to become a coach or expert, but to better understand the deeper benefits of creativity and how to support others in using art as a tool for self-reflection and emotional reset. Everything she shares is rooted in personal experience and a genuine desire to help others feel seen, soothed, and inspired through creative expression.
