I am an Artist who produces Paintings, Drawings, Photographs, Sculpture and Installations. I also work in other creative mediums such as the Dramatic arts, Music and Writing. I am also a Seer that uses the Indigo Chakra or Anja Chakra as well as Astrological data derived from your birth time, date and place. This combination gives me very clear details about Destiny and Personality. Carl G Jung, the forefather of modern Psychology and Psychiatry examined both the Indigo Chakra or ‘third eye’ employed by Psychic Mediums and also used Babylonian Astrology or Western Astrology himself in his work diagnosing personality and the associated psychological problems therewithin. Meditation and Yoga are critical to opening the Chakras more fully. Once done, an individual is far more informed about who they are and how to resolve the conundrum that is the meaning of their life or the meaning of life generally speaking.
Artistically, some of my work explores aesthetically both colour and form where I intend my art to make a lasting visual impact and be uplifting to the viewer, I am also interested in how I can relate my art to an understanding of the nature of reality. Thus art for me is also a way to express and illustrate ideas found in science, studies of consciousness and metaphysics.
While educated in the Fine Arts at University and College, I am largely self-taught. I am continually searching for the new and working hard to bring to the canvas what is yet to be seen. I also draw on my University Education in Accounting, Auditing, Commercial Law, Taxation, Economics, Econometrics, Politics, Finance, Metaphysics, Aesthetics, Counselling, Creative Writing, Education and the Psychology of Education, Studies of Religion, Law. I have made an effort to self-educate in the areas of Science, Western Astrology, Indian and Chinese Metaphysics, the Occult, Botany and Gardening, Yoga and Meditation.
My life and artwork are informed by my commitment to the daily practice of meditation. Meditation being the primary activity for my inner exploration has brought forth many vivid visions and ideas. Patterns and forms in nature as well as sacred geometry continue to inspire my art and nourish me creatively. Movements that have influenced my art include Abstract Expressionism, Op Art, Sacred Geometric art and the Colour Field movement.
For me, art is about freeing one’s consciousness from the constructs and limitations of the mind and bringing the artist and art viewer into contact with the sublime as defined as something that illuminates a higher level of consciousness . In this way, art has a very healing quality both for the artist and the viewer of artwork. When making art, I feel I am better taken into the present moment where creative flow comes naturally and one’s mind becomes a servant rather than a master. The viewer is also taken to this space when gazing into a work and being immersed by the energy of it, in the same way one may experience the beauty of a flower or nature.
“Great art brings one into the present moment, this moment being characterised by the quality of timeless truth, beauty and love.” – Leon Lester
