El O Shearn

By Sumara Love

 

Artist may not be as appropriate a title for El O Shearn as Creator.  Self-taught and self-empowered, her art reflects many aspects of her mystical life and spiritual philosophy. 

 

Rich in symbology and small details, her creations invite you to view them at length and repeatedly as you continue to discover new nuances and meaning in the multiple layers of her artistry.

 

El O Shearn has conscious messages to impart to the world, and her art conveys the depths of her thoughts and feelings as you explore the beauty of her creations.

EloChean.jpgEl 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.
