Art, a portal to the soul’s expanse,
Revealing realms within, a dance,
With truths I shy from, yet reclaim,
Challenger, friend, in honesty’s name.
Teacher, prophet, whispers rare,
Speaking of mysteries, beyond compare,
Amidst turmoil’s tempestuous frame,
Beauty’s grace, art does proclaim.
Life’s purpose veiled, a sacred shroud,
In the unknown, it’s quietly endowed,
A journey’s path, with steps untamed,
In purpose’s silence, we are framed.
To me, painting is a sacred journey that is both transformative and contemplative. Each canvas is a conversation, a dance between the known and the unknown, between form and formlessness, alive with a spectrum of colours that echo the whispers of my inner Self.
In this intuitive flow, I trust every stroke, every hue, every symbol that emerges, even when they are swept away or reshaped by the next stroke of the brush. The act of painting slows me, drawing me inward into hidden chambers of resonance, where an open heart meets the quiet pulse of reflection and the luminous unfolding of subtle wisdom is felt.
“One becomes two, two becomes three, and out of the third comes the one as the fourth.”
