The Planetary Gate (2016) Painting by Sari Komulainen

About ten years ago we  developed a co-creative painting method with my colleague. At that time I discovered that we can capture the energy we have embodied during the preparation phase into the painting. This same energy can be captured later by the person who is looking at the painting at the levels of thinking, feeling and acting.

My painting method at the moment is meditative and the contemplation phase is the most important part of the whole work. I am inspired by the form of flower of life, seed of life and fruit of life. With my paintings I illustrate new starting points for honouring our life force in everything we do. 

My story short: 

I started painting with oil colours at the age of 15 after difficult sport injury. This incident gave me time to sit down and do something else than sports. Soon I found out that I knew how to paint for some reason without any help or instructions. 

In this life my path was to become a MSc. in engineering, human resource advisor and hospitality business owner instead of a professional artist. I am amateur - the one who loves to paint.
