Heart Chakra Series

This small series marks an early exploration of harmony and sacred symbolism. Built from handmade papers layered on watercolor sheets, each work centers on the six-pointed star within a twelve-petaled flower — the heart chakra motif. Though brief, the series foreshadows my ongoing interest in balance, pattern, and the spiritual language of form. That search for balance later deepened into the Ogham Tree Alphabet and, most recently, the Shadow Portal paintings.

Heart Chakra Series, I-IV, 2020

Looking back, I’m surprised by the strength of the series. What once felt like four experiments now forms a circle of energy — each piece layered from papers I created with my own hands, each carrying its own rhythm. Seen together, they remind me that art, like the heart itself, beats in layers and in time.
