Simone's drawings: after relaxation; at the start of the evening and Simone by Jeanette  

Apologies to Jackie, Lisa, Michelle, Dawn & Sophie for forgetting my camera.  Your drawings were wonderful too...  Michelle's 8 year old daughter spent the time making beautiful drawings of angels - sorry again, no piccie.  
Thank you everyone for making it a very special evening & to Simone at the Angel Lounge for making us so welcome. 

Also, a special thank you to Pamela Young.  We referred to Pam's colour meanings which came to her during meditation at a Rainbow Group in 1988.  Her biography, "Hope Street" is well worth reading.  'When you read Hope Street, you are uplifted, exhilarated, excited at the profound truths that shine through. This radiant book will bring great comfort, healing and hope to all who are blessed by reading it.'

Colour Codes: Orange I

Colour Codes - "Orange I", ink on paper, 18 x 12 cm 
Colour Codes
acrylic paint or ink on paper, assorted sizes July 2014


With a nod to the Rorschach inkblot tests, this series of work sits between a visual meditation of the chakras (the subtle energy centres of the body) and a labyrinthine journey to the soul.



Although superficially symmetrical, as the viewer engages with the piece differences become more and more apparent.  Rather like a child’s “spot the difference” game the eye is shifting back and forth to catch the variations.  Once accepting the differences, the eye can follow an inward journey around the work and gently absorb the colour which will imbue its own qualities into the viewer.
