This painting came from a meditation on the rise of energy up the through the chakra system from Buddhist philosophy. Both brush and palette knife have been used. The impasto has sand incorporated because organic matter holds what is called still point energy, a permanent energy that brings perfect balance. The gemstones vanadinite and yellow calcite have been added to increase the healing vibration of the piece. Vanadinite allows for deep meditation and promotes thrift in spending of money and energy. It has been used to treat disorders of lung function as well as exhaustion. Yellow calcite promoted joy, happiness and humour.
The colours of this painting resonate to the sacral chakra, the chakra or energy center of creativity,feelings and sexuality. This painting has a beautiful warmth radiating from it and one can feel one's energy rising in its presence.
