About Akasha

I was born in the Netherlands.
As far as my memory goes back I always have been creating things. Luckily I always had art classes in the schools I went to. Born in 1957 this was not very common in those times.
I learned drawing, painting, crochet, knitting, gardening, sewing at a very young age and I still manage to do them all from time to time.
In 2001 after my first Reiki initiation, I saw a mandala appearing in front of my eyes and that inspired me to start painting them. I have never stopped since and the knowledge that came with them helped me to get a deeper insight into the Universal connections and Sacred Geometry.
I give workshops and retreats and are willing to travel sent me a message for more info.
I channel personal mandalas for others with the help of a photo.
Besides painting mandalas on canvas i enjoy up- recycle doors, furniture and lamps.

Innovative, Eye for Detail ,Love and a Sea of Patience and Creativity are some words to describe my art.
Each painting takes between 1-3 month.
Depending on the light, the colours will change.

THE PROCES
|
I always start my mandala by looking for the centre point on the canvas. Trusting my hands and intuitive connection with the universe to flow over the canvas. The help of a compass and a ruler give birth to each Mandala. From there it becomes a journey into colours and texture. I love to explore and find new media's to work with. I might get a name or a story that forms during the process that gives me an understanding in what I am doing. Thanks for taking your time to see and purchase one of my works. |
