SOUND OF THE OCEAN
ACRYLIC, TRIDACNA, BLUE TIGER EYE ON CANVAS
152 CM X 121 CM
2018
The highlights of this piece are the colour, the throat chakra symbol, and the mandalas.
I imagined healing sound waves emanating from the symbol. This healing is for anyone and everyone in whatever form it is needed and received.
The dominant colour, royal blue, is associated with the third eye chakra and opens the door to deep seeing. It is the colour of lapis lazuli, a crystal that awakens the third eye for deep seeing, feeling and knowing, our intuition.
Upon closer look, you’ll see the lighter shades of blue and even some turquoise. It is all about reaching deep within the wisdom of the universe that is a part of us and expressing it in the most harmonious and loving ways. This colour always reminds me of the deep ocean and the songs of the ancient, wise whales and the friendly, playful dolphins and other deep-sea creatures who vibrate in higher, healing frequencies. The lotus flowers are to add to the symbolism as they are an ancient symbol of the wisdom of the divine.
The crystals on this piece are: Blue tiger eye is believed to bring abundance but also insight into complicated situations and problems. Tridacna enhances the magnetic field of the human body and creates an aura of protection against negative energies. It calms one’s mind, enhances wisdom and believed to promote good energy flow.
LOVE 2
ACRYLIC, LAPIS LAZULI/ TRIDACNA (砗磲) ON CANVAS
76 CM X 101 CM
2024
Love flows through all things, an invisible yet powerful force that connects and sustains. In this piece, the intertwining of blue and white echoes the beauty of fine china—delicate in appearance but capable of lasting for centuries when cherished. Love, too, holds this duality of fragility and resilience. It requires care, yet its essence is enduring.
The textured flowers forming the word LOVE give it weight and presence, a reminder that love is not just an idea but something tangible, something to be nurtured. White vines flow effortlessly across the canvas, representing the natural movement of love—unbound, ever-growing, and deeply woven into life itself. The floating royal blue leaves add contrast, symbolizing serenity, depth, and the timeless elegance of devotion.
Scattered throughout, large textured flowers with lapis lazuli beads bring richness and warmth, suggesting that love, in its purest form, is abundant and ever-present. This piece speaks to the way love moves through the world gentle yet unwavering, delicate yet strong, flowing like art, like time, like life itself.
HEALING THE EARTH OLIVE-PINK
ACRYLIC, ORGONITE, AMETHYST, TOURMALINE, JADE ON CANVAS
91 CM X 119 CM
2021
As an artist, my purpose is to be a conduit of healing – for humanity and Mother Earth. Guided by the wisdom of Nikola Tesla's famous quote, ”If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration” and inspired by Dr. Masaru Emoto’s groundbreaking research on water’s capacity to carry memory and respond to healing intentions, I infuse my art with ingredients that elevate its vibration. Dr Emoto said: “Water has a memory and carries within it our thoughts and prayers. As you yourself are water, no matter where you are, your prayers will be carried to the rest of the world.”
From the healing energy of crystals and semi- precious stones to the soothing essence of essential oils, and the transformative hues of colour therapy systems (Aura-Soma), I carefully craft each piece to resonate with healing frequencies. I chant healing mantras and even the water I use is charged under the revitalizing rays of the sun, imbuing it with life- giving energy. Furthermore, in the spirit of embracing imperfections and celebrating the journey of healing, I draw inspiration from the Japanese art of “KINTSUGI.”; Kintsugi is a philosophy, repairing broken pottery with precious metals, symbolizing resilience and beauty in imperfection. I use 24-carat gold and silver leaves (from Kanazawa) and copper leaves to achieve this effect.
My work in this series was inspired by aerial photos of the beautiful circular patterns of farmlands in Kansas. As I am aware of the ecological toll of mass farming – from the degradation of soil health to the harmful effects of pesticides that seep and contaminate underground waters as well as our environment and wildlife, I wanted to create a symbolic offering of healing to those areas by offering positive healing energy for our precious Earth, bringing together the gold, the crystals, the essential oils, the healing words and the colour energies.
The first one brings pink and olive green from the heart chakra. The second one brings the grounding from the root chakra and balances with the purple- violet of the divine, crown chakra.
ATLANTIS
ACRYLIC, LARIMAR, TURQUOISE, AQUAMARINE, BLUE AGATE ON CANVAS
76 CM X 76 CM
2021
I envisioned the tranquil waters of a peaceful realm—perhaps Atlantis, or a distant memory of another world. At the heart of the piece, a golden spiral unfolds in the Fibonacci sequence, a symbol of harmony and flow. This golden ratio serves as a guide, drawing us into a state of tranquillity and reminding us of our true essence—one rooted in love, compassion, and kindness. The textured dots within the spiral do not compete; they move together in unity, lifting and supporting one another. Their effortless flow reflects the natural rhythm of life when love replaces struggle, and harmony takes the place of chaos.
The colors are inspired by Aura-Soma bottles 43 and 108, infused with the Holy Grail Pomander. A drop of this essence is blended into the gesso and each paint bottle, adding an energetic layer to the piece.
Crystals embedded within the work amplify its healing intention. Larimar radiates love and clarity, turquoise dispels negativity and restores serenity, aquamarine brings emotional balance and selflessness, and blue agate strengthens the heart’s capacity to give and receive unconditional love. Together, they infuse the painting with a gentle, yet powerful energy—an invitation to return to peace, presence, and the flow of love.
SPRING IN MY HEART
ACRYLIC, MIXED MEDIA ON CANVAS
76 CM X 76 CM
2024
This painting embodies awakenings, lightheartedness, abundance, and the essence of being alive. It portrays Mother Nature in her full abundance, blooming without inhibition or self-consciousness. Through her vibrant display, she teaches us to embrace ourselves unconditionally and to radiate love and abundance effortlessly. The crystals serve to enhance the positive vibrations and intentions imbued within the artwork, creating an even more profound resonance of love, abundance, and harmony with nature.
