In 2005 she moved from New Orleans to Los Angeles in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, fulfilling a lifelong desire to reconnect with her mother's California ancestry, an artistic family which included composer Louis Waldemar Everson and Beat poet Brother Antoninus aka William Everson.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"wixGuard\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLong before her migration, a chance encounter in the summer between second and third grade introduced Ewen to one of her first art mentors who, over the subsequent months, taught her the fundamentals of drawing with charcoal and encouraged her to draw every day, a formative experience which established visual art as a core element of her life. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"wixGuard\"\u003e​\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShe later attended the Louisiana School for Math, Science and the Arts (a magnet boarding school) concentrating on a curriculum of fine art before spending two years studying figure drawing, printmaking and painting in Paris, France.
