Rising Above
The mighty horse
And the rising sun
The race of Life
And the will to run.
The third in a “The Reflections” collection of three artworks by Ashima Kumar to be released is Rising Above. These paintings represent three attributes of the human mind, the horse representing the race of life. Collectively they symbolise man’s desire to reach his/her eternal goal – the merger with the Supreme Being.

Winter Buddha – Absorbing Energy
£ 90.00 – £ 550.00 BUYInspired by the story of Buddha finding enlightenment whilst meditating underneath the Bodhi tree without moving for seven weeks.
This piece, one of a collection of 4 representing the four seasons of Buddha, pushes the boundaries of natures’ potential further.

With a similar colour scheme throughout, the Buddha and the tree become ‘one’ during his quest for inner peace.

Spirit Element: Space
£ 95.00 – £ 990.00 BUYSpace belongs to a series of 5 paintings in art-ma’s Elements collection, each relating to one of the classical elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Air and Space. This collection created by Ovidiu Kloska, is a compilation of abstract paintings, featuring heavy textures in rich colours, resulting in contemporary artwork that is both fascinating and dramatic.
The Space element is the subtlest of all the elements. It can not be identified by our senses. It can only be felt by our soul. Although the elements are significant across many cultures, in the Upanishad, an ancient scripture from Hinduism, it refers to the elements being used for spiritual growth.
“From Atman (your inner self) did space come into being;
from space, air; from air, fire;
from fire, the waters; from the waters, the earth;
from the earth, plants; from plants, food;
and from food, man…”
– Taittirīya UpaniṣhadIn this painting the big brush strokes of Acrylic in shades of inky dark blue and chalky white sweep across the canvas, creating a beautiful piece of artwork in Kloska’s series of the five elements.

Sleeping Angel
£ 95.00 – £ 400.00 BUYThis artwork by Italian artist Pietro Di Giovannantonio symbolises the belief common to different faiths, that we are never alone, there is always a guardian angel beside us – watching over us and protecting us.
Central to the painting is a sleeping angel, who is dressed in heavenly white and looks serene and calm. A golden ring of divine light surrounds the angel, who appears to be floating through the sky, as if in a dream.
This piece symbolises this intimate bond that our guardian angels share with us as they lead us to the path of righteousness. This guardian angel has descended onto earth from heaven above to protect its believer from evil and generate good and fruitful thoughts.
