Lalainya

Visionary Artist Lalainya practices uninhibited creativity and freedom of materials. This artist receives her inspiration from the glistening sparkle of the Stars, the Sun, and Moonlight hitting the Water and all reflections in Nature.

Through the practice of Meditation during the past 20 years Lalainya was inspired to create the colors that she could see when her eyes were closed in Meditation.

To document these visions and feelings she decided to use Water to channel the Spiritual Energy as the element of Water holds a deep connection for Lalainya.

Her first series was using Garden Hose Water. The second series was using Kitchen Sink Water. Lalainya’s most recent series is with Rain Water.

Using pure Cotton Paper, Watercolors, Ink, Acrylic Paints, Iridescent reflective materials, Lalainya composes all of these elements of Color and leaves the paintings out in the Rain allowing spontaneity. Lalainya has labeled these Meditative Vibrational Visions Spiritual Energy Paintings.

This Artist does not recall ever not making Art. She tries to maintain the perpetually fresh consciousness of a five-year-old child.

Lalainya feels that creativity is a new mix of all intake of information to our brain and spirit. Her Collage Portraits, Endangered Animal Series, Seahorses, Environmental Art, Art Cars, and other pieces are called “Glizaics”, Sparkling Mosaics.

Lalainya is presently creating an “Art Car” entitled “Save Our Oceans”, along with her “Spiritual Energy Rain Series.”

Lalainya believes that her “Art Cars” are the most important and fun Art as they make people smile and rock their consciousness. Mobile Art is important because people who never go to the Galleries view Art on the roads. The newest mobile Art Car theme is saving our oceans from pollution. Lalainya has created three other Art Cars. “Ms Liberty for 911”, “Wildlife - For Endangered Animals and Wild People Who Are Also Endangered Animals,” and “One Human Tribe”.

“One Human Tribe” was commissioned by the country of France for the L’ete’ de Arts Festival. Lalainya has fans worldwide. The “Pop Culture” portraits of the stars, such as Jimi Hendrix, Marilyn Monroe, and Elvis, certify for the viewers glittering glamour that they personify. These portraits and all of Lalainya’s Art utilize Art Deco Beads and Stones from Austria and Germany in the 1920s and 1930s. Also all of the Collages use Crystals, Found Objects, Hardware, Semi Precious Stones, and various materials. It’s Collage beyond the term Mixed Medium. They are colorful, controlled chaos, tenderly arranged. Lalainya considers school just a support and is primarily self-taught.

She did attend Parsons School of Design, Art Students League of NYC, St. Petersburg Junior College, Ridgewood Art Institute, Montclair University, and Ramapo University. She believes in lifelong learning and study.
