TAKING ART TO NEW LEVELS

The ancient Chinese art form of Feng Shui has been used for centuries to bring harmony and balance into our lives. By using a little Feng Shui knowledge, allow me to help guide you in consciously choosing artwork for special placement in your home to enhance your desired goals.

We start by placing what is known at the Bagua Map over the floor plan of a room in your home, or an office, or your whole house. We lay it over the floor plan by dividing the space up into 9 equal parts and so that the Career area is aligned with the front entrance. Thus making the front door into the space fall into either the Knowledge, Career or Helpful People area. Take notice that the different sections of the Bagua Map are associated with different areas of your life and also colors. You can enhance a specific area of your life by consciously decorating according to these ancient principles by setting your intentions, either using the suggested colors, or by adding something related to the meaning of each area.

The first painting in this booklet, entitled 'Nouveaux Monde' was painted with the intention of enhancing Wealth and Opportunity in your life. According to the Bagua, if you intend to enhance your wealth or create more opportunities in your life, it can be an asset to you to place the painting in the back left hand corner of the space you are decorating.

Due to its dominantly pink colored background, this same painting could be used to support you in the Marriage and Relationships area of the Bagua. In this case you would place the painting in the back right hand corner of the space you are decorating. It is your intentions that will determine the right placement for each piece of artwork throughout your home.

Each painting in this booklet has been given a Feng Shui recommendation to help you begin to create the life that you desire. I wish you much joy in making your dreams come true and beautifying your home with original art. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this process.
