Sacred Geometry

The way I see the world is through geometric patterns, colors and some optical illusion.

The golden ratio is in nature, reminding us that all is part of a great design. Most of the time, painters imitate nature, but not putting enough emphasis on the perfection of measurements, tesselations and color combinations. I am a painter, and I have refused to let art imitate the mere external beauty. I'm focusing on the geometry behind it.  

Sacred geometry is there on every art form through out centuries, religions took it as part of their artistic expression. Why? Because it takes us a little closer to the divine.

Think about sunflowers, snowflakes, spirals and honeycombs. Don't they all have a particular geometrical and mathematical perfection to it? I love paying attention to these details. Look at a flower, any flower, count the number of petals, the form of its leaves, the overall design. See how perfect it is?

This is my little tribute to nature.

Love & Light.
