Artist Statement

Helen says, "I believe art heals. For many of us creatives, art is a spiritual path, a transformational process, a way of being. My unique platform, HealingArts™—a pioneering concept, technique and style—is my unconventional way to integrate fine art, expressive arts, and the art of healing.
By awakening senses, remembering good memories, feelings, energies, and thoughts through positively charged intention, healing frequencies of color, embedded spiritual messages, and energetically balanced composition, I offer a person to tap into their own source to allow healing to take place.

My art is not just viewed but experienced. A viewer is invited to experience not only an artistic enigma and mastery, but to embrace a positive aura of my compositions, to have their own spiritual experience and profound realization(s) while feeling energized and/or relaxed and enlightened.

I believe my vibrant, colorful and passionate “healing arts” can make a difference in people’s lives. 

As a therapist and artist, I believe that tragedy, pain and trauma can be healed with beauty, love, positive energy, spirituality and self-expression. My intention is to create a substantial body of healing art to serve people and communities in need. I envision my artwork to be placed in hospitals, medical centers, rehabilitation and multicultural centers, behavioral and crisis centers, and alike—to enhance healing and to serve as a vehicle for well-being. 

My art is better experienced "in person” due to live vibrations of bright colors, heavy textures, large size, and just an overall charisma and liveliness. My work is mainly influenced by impressionism and expressionism. My canvases are varied and vibrant; some are raw, some refined, all intuitive. There are domes, bridges to the past, cities in the rain, mementos, fields of sunflowers, and recently, I am creating more and more abstract expressionistic spiritually enhanced and often channeled works... The common themes always present in my paintings are: being on your journey, going towards the Light, self-reflection, awareness of 'Here and Now', and of course, 'j'oie de vivre'! 

Each generation creates new ideas, paradigms and art forms. I believe my 'HealingArts' is a powerful form of self-expression that enhances healing and promotes well-being in a viewer.  

I believe in the interconnectedness of physical, mental and spiritual. I believe art is a catalyst for healing individuals, society and the environment. I continue to follow my dream by sharing my unique art and my personal journey of hope through my “HealingArts”.   

And my passionate, vibrant art is a statement of all my beliefs.".
