The art of creation, the passion that comes with it, is the freedom to open up and express your most inner feelings, the ability to reflect your emotional state on the canvas.

Everything in the universe is made up of energy, vibrating on a range of different frequencies. When an artist creates, her art will reflect the energy vibration of her consciousness and people that vibrate on the same frequency will be drawn and connect deeply with the work.

The need to paint comes from an inherent need to escape the world of ego, the physical world and sink into the plains of being, the spiritual world, where materialism does not exist.

It is similar to meditation. Artists whose entire existence consists of creating, have been accused of not living in the real world. The question remains, what is the real world? Is it our thoughts, our assumptions, our predictions, or are they just fabrications of the mind. The true world of existence is below the surface, in the moment of now, where no time and place exists, where there is no past and no future.

From the very first painting I did, during a period of deep mental instability, I have been signing my work with the date of it's creation. When I look at my past work, it is like reading a diary of my emotional state of that time. I can follow with clear precision my spiritual path, I can recall the emotions of that time and how they evolved. They reflect deep dark periods, inner turmoil, loss and letting go.
