The “starving” artist dream… or the “safe” life of predictable success? As a teenager these were the two life paths laid before me. My father made sure I understood which path was acceptable. The world completely changed since, as I was born in the communist Hungary, more than half a century ago. Then and there, was no other option, but to do the “right thing”, so I became a commercial economist.
I ticked the boxes. But my soul? It slowly became invisible beneath spreadsheets and social expectations. I was made to believe that expressing myself through art was irresponsible, even childish. So, I abandoned it. And by doing so, in many ways, I abandoned myself. I felt numb and forced myself to adapt and find success and happiness in another way.
The Moment Everything Changed
Until one day everything I had built: the structure, the identity, the roles… started to collapse. I have found myself on a rollercoaster leading to mental and emotional hell. A friend of mine witnessing my struggles for months, suggested to see a doctor, because she suspected I was depressed.
And as I sat in that darkness… Spirit stepped in for the first time in my adult life, at age 38. It began with little nudges, then I was gradually guided to fairies, the angelic realm, energy and my soul, to remember the world, I used to believe in as a child – before it was trained out of me.
That was the moment I stopped dismissing my creativity as “just a hobby”… And started treating it like the language of my soul.
The Journey Began
It began with sketches. With drawing fairies… I guess their magical world allowed me to reconnect with my child-like nature… meditating, buying art supplies I wasn’t sure how to use. I drew what I saw in my mind: beings, energies and stories.
At first it was play. Then it became something more. Each brushstroke held emotion I couldn’t explain. I was creating not from technique… but from my soul. I even drew my future husband before I ever met him. (Yes, really.)
A New Perspective
“Eva, they want you to channel from them!” was the message a psychic friend of mine channelled from the angels for me. It felt so freeing, as if they were saying: “Here is your permission to officially be YOU!” At that moment I realised this wasn’t just art. This was a sacred practice. A way to turn emotion into energy and create visual portals for healing. So art became the extension of my reiki healing practice.
Years later I started channelling the Divine Feminine and art became the bridge between spirit and embodiment. The more I painted, the more my artworks began to carry a certain frequency. My paintings became activations.
Me, as an Artist Now
Now I paint almost every day. Sometimes it’s a challenge to keep my promise to my inner child to take her out to play… but when I do, it’s pure bliss. “We” travel in the Universe for hours on end and channel. My paintings became portals. Meaning each piece is an invitation to reconnect with your soul and your Divine Feminine essence.
So if you don’t just want something beautiful on your wall, you are yearning for something deeper: an energetic resonance perhaps, or a reminder of who you truly are?
My art is here to inspire you and activate your truth through colour, emotion, and sacred frequency.
