This was my first series of paintings. This was the beginning of my exploration of the feminine and this series led the way to almost 20 years of working with this subject. I painted each chakra energy center as a feminine representation.  I focused on the aspect of the chakra color, incorporating a combination of paper, fabric, glitter, stones, beads, flowers and feathers – further illustrating and delineating subtle hues and tones within each color and its vibration.

The Butterfly symbolizes transformation for me, my own transformation, but also my messenger of spirit. You will find one or more butterflies on nearly every painting I have done.  In these paintings,  I use it at the chakra point and at other times I use it where I intuitively feel it should be. At the bottom of each painting is the gemstone or crystal associated with that particular chakra and color energy. I have placed this gemstone next to my signature. I hope that this small gesture completes the story of each color and its healing messages. The Chakra Meditation Kit is available in my Etsy Shop, and includes these images on 7 chakra meditation cards with a guide book and gemstones.
