The Story
In the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life, finding the calm and time to contemplate is challenging.
There are a million and one distractions ever present — an arm's reach away, always tempting me to spend more time outside of myself than examine the world within me. Threatening to wash away all the layers of work that has taken years to build within myself.
This flood of distractions is something I struggle with, being a workaholic.
If not careful, all the work put into one’s self will be washed away before enlightenment is reached.
It's a hard journey to be on and stay on. It is something that needs continuous effort - to learn to prioritize the balance and building of my soul's framework.
This beautiful sacred space needs doing and guarding to reach the highest potential one can be in this life and for others to build on.
This painting was one of 13 that were exhibited on Eissey Theatre’s gallery wall.

Contemplation Series
“As we journey through life, we find ourselves cocooned in contemplation at various junctions — in search of enlightenment and some form of understanding of ourselves.
This journey is symbolized by the mandala crowning our heads. Each of us have different and maybe similar rings of sacred truths which we have uncovered in our contemplative wanderings. Truths that we have come to realize makes us who we are as individuals. And as a community, we create a lush kaleidoscopic landscape of experiences to explore.
In our contemplation, we evolve and draw closer to being our most authentic selves. That’s the beauty of the process.“
