El
O Shearn, have
you always been interested in art?
I
was always aware from a very early age that my main loves in life were
drawing, singing and writing. They do say that what you spend the most
time doing, as a child, is very likely the thing (or things) you would
be best to follow when older, as you came in naturally with those GIFTS.
Children, unlike adults, do not put up parameters of thought that
prevent their expression; they just express. So, as a child my
indication was certainly that. Art was the main thing that brought me
instantly back to my TRUE ESSENCE. I have always been inspired by BEAUTY
in every form, especially those derived from Nature. When in secondary
school, I remember my Art teacher, a lovely man with a very open heart,
put on my report, and I was so chuffed about this, “Art IS Helen’s
subject!’ Well, he was right. He intuited what it probably took me years
to actually act upon, but I did realize it at some level, and always
have really.
How
did you begin as an artist and how did your art evolve into what it is
today?
Well, to be quite honest
with you, I only began to explore my artistic side again in the last
couple of years. For some reason I allowed life to ‘swallow’ me up a bit
and turned my back on my creative side to just live what most would term
a “normal” life, earning a living, etc. Commensurate with my spiritual
awakening and unfolding, my desire to once again put pen and pencil and
paintbrush to paper, began to re-emerge. The desire to create visually
only began to return when I began to see myself as an intrinsically
Spiritual Being and went on a journey of deep healing to access those
parts of me that had somehow become lost in the frays and demands of
life. It was a wonderful feeling, to realize that I am the Creator of my
own life after-all; with this dawning knowledge of how powerful we all
are inside, came my deep calling to re-connect with what I had known as
a child naturally.
Diamond Doorways
began to emerge when I was 44 (last year) and with it the hugest sense
that I had come back home to ME again. Art is and always will be a part
of my need to create beauty and connect to the Universe for others (and
myself), on a visual level. I feel I am only just beginning, but it is a
powerful feeling that floods me each day now. The more I now ACT, the
more it is coming through. It’s a case of “watch this space’” with me
now…because I am only JUST starting to put on paper what I know and hold
to be deeply true inside. It is a marvelous journey to finally be
“walking that talk” that everyone mentions these days. I recommend this
to every person. Act now. Do not wait, you will be amazed at what you
are capable of if you just DO it! It is all about unleashing your inner
passions and expressing them outwardly so that they can help heal this
world and yourself in the process.
Have
you had any formal training as an artist?
Absolutely none
whatsoever. I did ART HISTORY, A level, and learned about the background
to the artists’ lives, but as for actual classes, no – none. It runs in
my family (Mothers side) as she and my auntie and my grandfather were
all very good but did nothing with it, apart from, of course, to just
enjoy it as a hobby. I do not feel one NEEDS to LEARN anything, but
actually just to begin to PLAY with It and have some fun! (Yes, like a
child!). Of course, to get the technical skills there are certain rules
to follow and they will enhance the ability to portray something
accurately, but I don’t necessarily think one has to learn in any
formatted way unless they wish to. A lot of it is just down to feeling
and observing. More important is the desire to express yourself and if
that leads you to classes, then all the better, equally, if it doesn’t
seem you need to do it that way, that is also perfectly fine. Just enjoy
it.
What
or who would you say have been your biggest influences in life; that
have helped you on your path of art?
In terms of artistic
expression, I love Susan Seddon-Boulet; I used to be inspired by
Hieronymous Bosch. I love the Pre-Raphaelites and their romantic
depictions of women. I also love Space art showing how the Universe
unfolds itself in the form of stars and Galaxies. I was also inspired by
Leonardo Da Vinci due to his deep understanding of the Creation of all
life (through Sacred Geometry). My biggest inspiration has just to have
become simply aware that I AM Creation itself and that I can allow
myself to unfold in whatever way I chose and Art is one of my most
heart-felt ways of doing this. By no means do I think I am a GREAT
Artist (technically) but it does not matter; what I bring through is of
a pure frequency and vibration, which reflects my Highest knowledge as a
Soul into Matter and the energy of my work is what people feel more than
anything. This has been said to me time and time again, I am now coming
to understand how it “works” – at least, for ME, and those who are
“magnetized” and “guided” to my work, which is inherently Spiritual of
Nature. The Natural world is my biggest influence, also the stars and
planets and the feeling of connectedness all of this gives me.
Is
your type of art something that anyone can learn to do? How did you
learn?
I believe everyone has a
UNIQUE vibration, special unto them selves and how lovely that we can
all express in such individual ways! As I said above, my particular
artwork is HEALING ARTWORK. I realize it is slightly different to the
normal kind, in that I have been told it is re-weaving people’s DNA,
because, as I do it, I am consciously aware of the persons ENERGY
patterns as they play out onto the paper. In some way I work with the
GRIDDING of the Earth (The Dragon Lines of force), which are in place
around our Earth now at this time of Ascension. I quite literally feel I
am bringing “Heaven to Earth” with this artwork. Most of it at the
moment is black and white as I am more of an illustrator than a painter
it seems, but it is also because I hold a very PURE vibration from the
Elohim, of which I am a part. So, each person when they do art, will be
bringing their own vibration onto the paper, I am just very conscious
that mine is actively HEALING a person on a deeply subliminal (and
physical) level. I feel it has taken many life times to be able to hold
enough LIGHT to do this TYPE of Healing Art-work, so perhaps what I am
doing is rather specific to me but it IS something others ARE doing, in
their own unique ways, I am sure.
What
inspires your art?
Everything! People,
places, feelings, touch, sensations; a deep connection to the Source and
the Language of Light also. My work will increasingly involve itself
with the process of Ascension at this time. I am being guided to bring
in symbols that are deeply archetypal and which help people re-connect
to their original selves. I am very aware that I am only touching the
surface right now. Color will come in as I explore the musical side of
things more as they are one and the same thing. I know that I am a
RAINBOW BRIDGE on Earth at this time. I am also being increasingly
guided to work with Autistic people and Children with learning
difficulties, as it seems the symbols I weave will be something they can
understand visually and my pictures will send them messages to help them
integrate more Light into their bodies. The fact that I can help these
particular groups DOES, in deed inspire me greatly. The Autistics
particularly, are OLD beings, who hold much energy and transmute the
density of the physical earth plane into Light. They are very special
and it is incredible to me that they feel this work of mine so very
much, that has poetically channeled through for me.
As
there are others who channel art, what makes your channeled art unique?
I FEEL what a person needs on the deepest levels of their being. I sense
their past, present and future selves multi-dimensionally. I am guided
by a vast array of Light Beings who send all sorts of sensations through
my body as I do the work. It is sometimes quite odd – I don’t profess to
have all the answers at this time but the artwork IS a healing tool,
where I am concerned. I am often experiencing, as I do a piece for
someone, the same things they are actually going through physically at
the time it is being created, which isn’t always very pleasant for me as
I come out in aches and pains of all kinds that were not there before.
It is like I am expressing that persons Soul on paper and, as I do so, I
seem to have to share some of their physical and emotional pain too.
Afterwards, I cleanse and purify myself, and the space I work in so I am
free to begin the next piece. I see myself as an instrument of Divine
Creation, and just need to get out of my own way, most of the time, in
order to allow things through. I am somehow aware that I am bringing
through the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, as a trinity, as I do this
work. Very unusual. I do feel it IS quite different to what I would term
‘normal’ artwork as such. Of course, ALL artwork IS healing in the sense
that visual things stimulate various emotions to soothe our souls.
Where
do you see yourself going with your art? What are your goals?
Well, I am not sure I see
myself GOING anywhere. I am just BEING who I am in the Present moment,
which IS the Gift, of course! I will simply allow myself to do what
needs to be done in the moment and I know that as I increasingly open up
to SPIRIT, in all its forms, that things will develop, change and alter
accordingly. As I say, I am just the instrument through which God/dess
plays its healing melodies. I have to understand that it is not ME doing
the work, it is my ability to remain clear and just allow it through
which is what counts. My biggest GOAL is simply to REALIZE that I can be
as a CHILD, and respond to life, in each moment, with a fullness of love
and joy and appreciation for all that I am and have. There is a bigger
picture emerging however, as a few important contacts have recently been
made, indicating to me that this Artwork WILL be revolutionary in the
WAY I am approaching it. It seems I hold specific frequencies that I
have been working upon energetically for lifetime after lifetime. I have
spent many incarnations increasing my Light, leading up to this
lifetime, where I now realize I am capable of bringing this type of star
gridding through into FORM.
My website will soon be
changing to reflect this incoming information being sent to me, mostly
on an Auditory level at the moment, and a clairsentient one also. It
seems that the VISUAL representation comes last with me, which can make
it quite awkward as I have to TRUST the process so much as I do NOT
exactly get ‘visions’ but hear codes within my head and body and have to
translate them for people onto paper. It is highly energetic and each
piece literally vibrates with this energy. People say it makes them feel
quite cold, which is what I interpret as being ‘Galactic’ in Nature.
What
do you see as your greatest gift to the world?
To be as fully myself as possible and just LIVE the LIGHT that I am
without restraint. To give of our selves FULLY in life is what is now
being asked. No more, no less. We are Universes unto ourselves and just
need to realize that and express it. Following our excitement in each
second of each day is what will transform not only our individual worlds
but the world we live in also. If each person were to just let the FLOW
into their lives and stop making excuses why they can’t, our entire
planet would immediately shift fully into a new Harmonic. This message
IS my greatest gift to the world. I am here as a Torch Bearer, as my
Soul Name of El O Shearn suggests. I am also here as a messenger for the
Angelic and Star realms. I bring through the Holy Language of Light
which will have a great impact on all who experience it, whether it be
in the original form of art that I produce (or a print – which still
carries that same vibration, although very slightly diluted). I am happy
to offer this service to everyone at this time as I know it WILL make a
big difference and in time will be understood much better. It IS my
‘calling’.
Namaste.
