Healing Through Art: My Story of Transformation

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… 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 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, the Angelic realm!” 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.

The more I painted, the more my artworks began to carry a certain frequency. My paintings became activations. This Guardian Angel soft pastel artwork was my very first channelled art from the Angelic Realm.

Me, as an Artist Now

Now, I paint almost every day. I enter a sacred space… where time dissolves, and I travel the Universe.

Each painting becomes a portal for me, and every brushstroke speaks of that journey, so it can transport you too to places within,
to reconnect with the radiant, powerful essence of your soul.

If you’re not just looking for something beautiful to hang on your wall, but something that speaks to you… awakens something in you… mirrors who you truly are, my art is here to hold that space. To inspire you, move you, activate your truth through colour, emotion, and sacred frequency.

For over a decade, I painted to complement my healing work — creating pieces that helped my clients feel held, seen, and supported on their journeys.” Now I am turning it around. Through colour, energy, and form, I want to reach even more women — especially those walking through the fire of transformation. Those who are grieving, shifting, awakening, who are ready to reclaim their power and see their light reflected back at them.

That’s why I made art the heart of my mission — because although words reach the mind, art speaks straight to the soul.

I create art, so your space can become a sacred reflection of your soul.
