About me

My creative process is deeply spiritual, grounded in intentional steps that channel energy and meaning into my artwork. Before creating I clear my space and mind, often meditating to reach a state of openness. This allows materials and colours to intuitively choose themselves as the artwork evolves. I use an alchemical mix of spiritual intent, selected materials and symbolism. Acrylic is my favoured paint, as it is very versatile, to which I add ground crystals and other materials, such as specific metal leaf.

Sacred geometry is always the central motif, conveying universal messages, while colours represent emotions and aspects of the human experience. The geometry in my work is also structural, representing the foundational elements of creation and consciousness. Every artwork has an element of order and chaos to it, but these are not predetermined. To amplify their transformative power, I draw geometric symbols on the back of each piece.

Each artwork is a visual exploration of the interconnectedness between the cosmos and the individual using the inherent structures that shape reality - sacred geometry, colour and other archetypes. Through my art I aim to create a meditative space that invites viewers to contemplate their place in the universe and the geometry that governs existence. In essence, my work seeks to bridge the gap between art and the metaphysical, encouraging a personal and transformative experience for the viewer. I draw inspiration from metaphysical philosophies, blended with my scientific curiosity about the nature of reality, as described in my Gateway Series books.
