About Cassandra

Cassandra Gelmanovich (formerly Babtkis) is an artist and author whose work explores the intersection of creative expression and the complexities of the human spirit. In 2018, she founded Sensitive Soul Fine Arts LLC, where she became known for her intuitive Energy Portraits - vibrant works of art designed to reflect the soul energy of her clients.

Driven by a desire to cultivate deeper connection through the art of storytelling, she expanded her vision in 2026 with Sensitive Soul Press, an imprint dedicated to sharing raw, honest narratives from her life experiences. Cassandra’s debut memoir Mother Maui will be available for pre-order in July 2026.

In 2027, she intends to re-bloom her healing art offering “Evolve : Grieving Forward With Art” where she will connect virtually in private sessions with clients, guiding them to create a personal painting honoring their grief and loss.

Born in California, Cassandra has called Colorado, Maui, and Arizona home before settling in Wisconsin with her husband and daughter. When she isn’t writing or painting, she enjoys the ephemeral arts of fruit carving and floral arrangement.
