I've been a full time painter of light for 40 years - self taught and independent, a former President of the NZ Academy of Fine Arts.
I'm into sustainability, planting trees and spiritual ecology. This includes growing award winning Lavender oil and olive oil.
I'm a student of the Diamond Approach; a psycho-spiritual path to realizing and developing our fullest potential

Beautiful painting. And I love that Eckhart quote. It’s one we come back to over and over.

Oh I just love these words and need to hear them right now.
Are you tricking me again with a photograph but calling it a painting?
You just blow me away with your talent and deep sense of life.
🙂 no tricks, promise! It’s such a simple thing to be open to the present moment, yet so hard to sustain it seems. Glad it spoke to you right now, Patricia.

Such a beautiful painting and quote. Life does mould a person but don’t let it over power you.
