Lórien's muse is a combination of our vast cosmos, the natural elemental world and the Divine. "I create purely from my instinct, exploring truth, beauty and creation itself, working with my instruments of alchemy: light (all colors) and the earth’s raw materials.” My personal mission in life is to balance, heal, harmonize and beautify, bringing about these ideals through my original artwork and awakening the Divine inner artist in all! "My inspiration often comes from traveling the world on volunteer endeavors, meditation retreats and teaching sojourns. I am deeply moved by the rich textures and brilliant colors of India and the deep jungle greens of Thailand, where voices of chanting monks permeate the silence before dawn. Trekking the Guatemalan highlands brings to mind the coarse threads of hand-woven Mayan textiles and an ancient culture pulsating with fertility. Living abroad in Ghana, I was steeped in images of saturated and intricate batik design motifs and the primal reds of the soil." Lórien’s passion and purpose is to inspire and support people in making transitions in consciousness. She offers this through her spiritually textured abstract paintings, in particular with her personalized Soul Cosmology Paintings. She also helps people reclaim their inner artist, educating through the creative process both with groups and individuals. To facilitate this, Lórien offers online art classes via Art with Lorien and Art of Meditation classes to small groups and in corporate settings. Her current works of art explore the interaction between the Soul, the Feng Shui five elements, the environment, and our feelings. Color is a power which directly influences the soul. ~ Wassily Kandinsky Lórien Eck was born in Los Angeles and raised in Laguna Niguel, California.
