My new series of paintings - Enlightenment

A contemplative journey, each work a meditation on the profound connection between light, the human spirit and spiritual enlightenment. This series is an exploration of the visible light spectrum, each hue corresponding to one of the seven chakras, energy centers within our body that govern our psychological and spiritual well-being.

In these minimalist oil paintings, I employ a restrained palette to evoke the essence and simplicity of enlightenment. The colors transition smoothly from one to the next, just as light flows across the spectrum, and our energy flows through the chakras.
My brushstrokes are deliberate yet minimal, allowing the canvas to breathe and the viewer’s eye to fill in the empty space.

Simplicity invites introspection, urging the observer to consider the interplay of light and hashtag#color, and how it resonates within their own being.

Enlightenment is not just a collection of paintings; it is an invitation to a visual and spiritual awakening, encouraging us to reflect on the light within ourselves and the world around us.

Through this series, I aspire to illuminate the path to inner peace, harmony with the universe and individual spiritual enlightenment, ending the cycle of birth and death.
