About



I adore the world and my painting practice is to reflect the magic of life. Creating is communication with life, as the arising ideas guide me in the process. I am in awe of the beauty that conquers pain, and in my creative process I express deep respect for ancient and old traditions. I believe they connect contemporary humans to their nature, to their Being, and the knowledge coming from them is soothing in the most interesting times. My method is Consciousness-Based Art which means the practice based in recognizing the source of ideas, and exploring it by practicing meditation every day. Any ancient culture in the world, European, American, Asian, Baltic, African, talks about the underlying oneness in life. I look for it in ancient folklore, fairy tales, contemporary literature, video games, people, and nature. My practice highlights magic present in appreciation, beauty, compassion and co-existence with all species and earth.
