LISA KUBIK
Lisa Kubik creates colorful, spirited paintings through her intuition to convey messages of love, hope and inspiration. Her intention is that these paintings can be used as a tool for healing the soul, as it is from her soul that she visualizes, perceives energy, and then creates art from that space. During the creative process, her thoughts gravitate towards the moment of relief and release and free flowing. When these paintings are viewed, the emotion would be an “Ahhhhh” moment. A sort of relief in a sigh. The calm after the storm. The sadness has disappeared and in its place serenity descends, allowing the light to shine in once again.
“When I first saw Lisa’s painting “Awaken” my heart was drawn in to a world of beauty, of passion and purpose. Lisa painted a beautiful masterpiece for me “Purposeful Soul” that provides me with love & inspiration every day. Her artwork is truly healing.” ~ Lee Horbachewski~
