My first attempt at making a video right from my heart. The pen drawings came up while organizing all my paintings done since the past 12 years. From my line series to my spiritual abstracts and sacred geometry all stacked up neatly arranged into separate folders, The inspiration relates to past years when I was inspired by the true love epic of meerabai and her true spiritual love for God. People  termed her insane when she left her riches and selected the life of a wanderer. YouTube Link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNbkNVuSvdA She refused to lead the same life as others from her family following the same rituals and the same superficial life style. Her leaving all the riches and selecting the simple life in way of God, praising him, singing for him..she has made a name in history for true spiritual love and I think this is some what so similar to sufism, that is true love for God. In Hinduism people  sing for the praise of God are termed as Bhajans, Pr...

Sacred geometry or spiritual geometry paintings or symbolic geometric paintings are a very specialized genre of art. Many spiritual healers use geometric shapes to represent balance, harmony and spirituality.Geometry has been an important part of my life as anspiritual healer and artist. healing through the perfect square for balance, the octad for bringing about perfection in any situation and the circle to represent the unending universe , the connection between heaven and earth. The year 2002 abstracts saw many geometric artworks and I continued to paint using water colours on paper. Since I was head strong on making art using the water colour technique making spiritual geometry was an enlightening experience.    Geometric Abstract painting by Rizwana http://www.absolutearts.com/cgi-bin/portfolio/art/your-art.cgi?login=razarts&title=Untitled-1342678924t.jpg I was often labelled as making squares and circles, that which small nursery children make and learn, b...

When you meet an artist how do you feel? it is understood that your buyers will want to connect with you, understand your art and some where when they are able to relate to your art only then will the want to make your art an important part of their life. I know talking about selling is a no no, still in our industry and as I discuss this I am too faced with this dilemma of parting with a part of myself. Let us consider a few thoughts in this direction from a buyers point of view. How you present yourself is very important and how you present your art is still more important. Does not mean you go on and on chattering about how you did your painting, what you saw, what motivated you and how you proceeded to collect paints and , or you just wait for the viewer to ask? Making beautiful , colourful art is one thing and thinking about selling your art is totally a different thing. I find it so difficult to talk about my art but when I write the words just keep pouring. ...

  Yin Tang Symbolic Feng Shui painting by Rizwana  http://www.absolutearts.com/cgi-bin/portfolio/art/your-art.cgi?login=razarts&title=Yin_Yang_Colours-1336025639t.jpg Yin Yang symbol having universal appeal is one of the commonest seen and used symbols in every culture. Be it the East or the West all people are familiar with this symbol and its symbolic sanctity is also understood by all. There is a deep meaning in this unique symbol which is never mentioned any where and as my spiritual journey carries forward I have been using this yin tang symbol extensively in my healing and feng shui paintings. The yin yang Tao symbol has been used to project harmony, a balance of positive and negative; white and black; dark and light; day and night; In fact 'chi' or the basic energy life force in feng shui is also having two constituents, that is heaven and earth. The two symbols unite to make a whole, which look like tad poles attached in opposite direction , toge...

Ki Energy Painting on paper by Rizwana Mundewadi Energy is our source of existence and as the energy for sustenance lowers we fall sick and feel tired. We have lower energy levels and also affects our relationships and career. Ki energy is the power source of attracting energy from the universe. As I have studied in Reiki the gruesome years of self training, the sacrifices, the trials and the emotional turmoil , having faced all setbacks we come to an awareness of the working of this universe, our karma. Some luck is attached with us which we cannot change that is our birth luck, the heaven luck, which we can improve and clear off bad karma by some healing techniques,  and the other earth luck is where there is a wide open opportunity to grow as much as you put effort. Ki energy painting done on oil sketch paper is a representation of the ki exercises taught by our teacher and Reiki Grand Master. Size 19x12.5 Inches, year 2003. The energy source arises from our own or...

 Geometry as we refer to a circle, square, rectangle and a triangle. This is what we have studied since childhood and as we grow we study cylindrical, cubic as well as other three dimensional forms of shapes. During my journey of searching for my identity I loved to paint shapes. Lines, circles, rectangles and squares were an important part of my discovery in art style and these paintings are size 6.5x9.5 Inches from the year 2000. Spirituality and religion are two different things is what I have understood. A religious person may not be truly spiritual and may keep following rituals blindly where as someone who may not be showing signs of following rituals may be a highly spiritual person leading a more fruitful life. Mandalas take you within. They are deep patterns and overflowing in harmony shapes that mesmerize the mind and soul and in turn heal the soul. Paintings of mandala structures need a lot of patience (I don't have!) and skill. To repeat the same patte...
