Mariahsachin Why "Abstract Art" for painting in the Spirit

Mariahsachin Style Co-Creating with God
Abstract Inspired Art ”Painting in the Spirit”
Why Abstract
by Mary Leonard written in 2015

Art in the prophetic is a new language that uses shape, form, color and line to create a feeling and a sense of Spirit. God is The Creator. Evil cannot create. In the act of creating inspired art, we invite the Spirit of God into the process. The Spirit might give the artist, or the observer, a shape, color, vision or even words. The layering of these elements on top of each other creates a constant flow and visual nuances in depth of color in the painting and perhaps layers of perception in the observer.

Abstraction departs from realism in art for several reasons. It allows the left and right brains to reroute to communicate with the soul. Just as an overworked muscle becomes too tight and needs stretched to be released, so does the mind need to be similarly released. This letting go moves a person from analytical thought into their feelings, into their soul, and to the ability to perceive the unseen. In other words, out of the “head mode” and into the “heart mode”. It sometimes feels like an interpretive dance or impromptu jazz.

Lyrical abstraction is music to art. Wassily Kandinsky, the “Father of Abstract Art”, was a theologian and musician inspired by the “resounding in the soul”. One of my favorite Kandinsky quotes is from his book Concerning the Spiritual in Art. “The artist must train not only his eye but also his soul.” Total abstraction is devoid of the object, image, icon or idol often assumed to be latently embedded in the abstraction. An observer reaches their soul through the inspired abstract and the intuitive abstract. The artist can reach out to others in total abstraction in confidence that other observers can be so moved in their spirit.

Mariahsachin the name given to my gift of inspired abstract art nurtured over the last 45 years. It is about hearing God through observing the painting and in the act of painting. However, Mariahsachin is not only restricted to painting. It started with the work of Kandinsky and grew through God’s help. I use prayer, praise and worship to stimulate my connection with the Spirit of God. I ask God for structure, rhythm and pattern. But mostly I ask for the grace to be silent to listen with my heart, soul and spirit.
