"Art is a way of revelation and revelation is the manifestation of divine truth"
I have apprenticed with Marika Popovits, Hungarian visionary artist for the last 17 years. I was schooled in making paints like the Renaissance masters and to paint on wood. I do this because I love returning to the ancient ways, the sacred process of alchemy. I am intrigued with this exquisite process which creates greater luminosity, intensity of color and depth. This process has always been as important to me as the product. I like to paint quite large to have freedom of movement, as the brush dances about my board in orchestration with my fertile imagination. As in dancing, I allow my partner to lead as I surrender my limited ideas and embrace the deep stirrings of my soul within. There is a moment when I must leap, release control of my thinking mind, and allow the painting to speak its language. Ultimately, I release the final outcome of what the painting will look like and all manner of pleasing synchronicities occur. The painting reveals to me my inner nature and a deeper universal truth within the silence of my soul. I choose to paint in this sacred energy of the moment, suggesting forms that embrace and nurture, with fluid colors and flowing movement. The images I convey are from a myriad of channels, archtypeal, direct experience and interior musings. I believe that images in my work are actually translations of energy taking form and communicating with the viewer. My life's work and passion is to create from this awareness. |
