Art of the Week- Behind the Scenes: “Sharp Focus #4”

Art of the Week- Behind the Scenes: “Sharp Focus #4”

Everything is energy.

Hi! as you know, I teach Tai Chi and take many Tai Chi classes as well, so I am really in tune with the energy of the Chinese healing arts. We recently entered the time of the metal element as we move into winter.

 

The metal element in Chinese healing arts and Feng Shui symbolizes clarity, structure, and precision. In healing, it is associated with the lungs and large intestine, encouraging emotional release and clear thinking. In Feng Shui, Metal brings strength, order, and efficiency, enhancing focus and creativity, especially in the West and Northwest areas of a space.

 

Metal element energy art benefits your space by promoting clarity and focus, improving organization, supporting emotional balance, and boosting creativity. It helps create a calm, structured, and efficient environment.

 

For example, placing metal elements or energy art in certain areas of the home can help with the following:

• Clear Mind: The clean and simple design helps you clear your mind, making it easier to focus and get things done.

• Emotional Calm: The balance of light and dark in the room and the art brings a peaceful feeling, helping reduce stress and making you feel more at ease.

• Creativity and Motivation: Metal energy supports creativity and sharp thinking, making this room perfect for working, planning, or just relaxing with clarity.

• Simplicity: The room feels elegant without being too fussy. It’s a space where you can relax, reflect, and feel at peace.

 

Because of the energy of the metal element, I named this series “Sharp Focus”.

 

“Sharp Focus #4 is one of my favorite pieces in this collection so far. I love the colors and textures.

I hope you enjoy it!

I infuse my emotions, intentions, and energy into the artwork I create, to convey specific qualities or benefits—such as prosperity—to you. As you engage with the art, you absorb the intended emotions and intentions, and align them with your own energy. This dynamic interaction generates a powerful force that resonates with your intentions, essentially harnessing the energy in the artwork and combining it with your own to attract and manifest what you want.

 

How? 

 

Emotions, which are energy in motion, serve as a catalyst for this connection.

 

Energy art is the foundation of  Interior Design that not only is beautiful but is transformative and enriches your life by expressing your true essence and supporting your potential.

Art of the Week- Behind the Scenes: “Freedom #5”

Everything is energy.

It is time to make a choice. Do you want freedom? Have you ever thought about what it would be like to not have it? Are you taking it for granted?

Freedom invites a sense of release, letting go of old chains, and stepping into the unknown with confidence and trust. You honor your own truth, and are fully yourself without fear. You explore, create, and thrive in your own unique way, and the universe supports and guides you. 

 

Support freedom for yourself and others. Vote.

 

My thoughts about freedom inspired this collection and this is one of my favorite pieces in it.

I hope you enjoy it!

Art of the Week- Behind the Scenes: “Truth #3”

Art of the Week- Behind the Scenes: “Truth #3”.

I am often amazed at how much mis-information we are surrounded by and how some try to get us to believe it by repeating it over and over. I love that old Winston Churchill quote ” A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.”

Truth, you know it when you see it (or hear it).

Truth is important. Letting intuition guide us to the truth is empowering and liberating. It offers clarity and calm, cutting through the noise of news and social media. This inner wisdom helps us discern what aligns with our core values, freeing us from anxiety and manipulation.

Trusting our intuition, and connecting with our own centered awareness helps us make choices rooted in confidence and inner strength.

The inner voice that tells us what is true inspired this collection and this is one of my favorite pieces.  I hope you enjoy it.

Art of the Week- Behind the Scenes: “Embrace the Earth”

Art of the Week- Behind the Scenes: “Embrace the Earth”.

I spend a lot of time thinking about energy, healing, and Chinese healing arts since I am a Tai Chi instructor and teach 8-9 classes a week. Things that come up in my class, or classes I take often provides inspiration for my art.

In Chinese healing arts and Feng Shui, the concept of elements is central to understanding balance, health, and harmony. These elements, like earth, water, fire, wood and metal are connected to different aspects of life, nature, and energy.

The shoulder season between summer and fall is the time of the earth element.

The Earth element represents stability, nurturing, and balance. It is associated with qualities like groundedness, harmony, and nourishment. It relates to our ability to feel centered, care for others, and create a sense of home and support.

This artwork represents the earth element and uses warm, earthy tones to promote emotional balance, connection, and self-care. It enhances supportive relationships and provides a sense of calm and security, making it perfect for living spaces, meditation rooms, or areas of transition. Infused with the energy of stability and nourishment, it fosters a harmonious, peaceful environment that supports personal growth and well-being.

I love the colors, movement and textures! This art has been featured on three artist groups on Fine Art America and given a special spotlight feature in the “A Woman’s Touch” artists group. I hope you enjoy it!
