Abstract Art with Soul

Much of art begins with emotion.

And emotion begins in the soul.


Art has the power to touch the viewer's soul while revealing the artist's own. Over time, the work itself takes on a life - shaped by what is poured into it and completed by the meaning each viewer brings. This kind of connection does not happen by chance.


Placing soul into an artwork requires courage. It asks for honesty, vulnerability, and a willingness to speak from lived experience. For me, the central theme of this exploration is growth - not as sudden transformation, but as a slow organic, unfolding.


My work reflects growth as something incremental and ongoing, much like a plant reaching toward light. Leaves trees, and branching motifs appear often, symbolizing the quiet persistence of becoming. Growth is a universal experience, but it becomes meaningful when it is personal. I place myself fully within the work so that what you encounter feels lived, not abstract.


Growth is rarely neat or easy. Change requires care, patience, and time. Like tending a living thing, it asks us to show up consistently and honestly. I believe that it is this honesty that allows art to touch the soul - where the inner landscape of the artist meets that of the viewer.


When a work carries it's own soul, interpretation is open. The viewer is free to find their own meaning, and in doing so, bring their humanity into the experience. This exchange is where connection lives.


Art, for me, is an act of soul-searching. What I discover in that process is what I share. Growth or stagnation is always a choice. My work is an invitation to lean into growth - even when it is difficult - and to recognize ourselves in one another.e work itself takes on a life — shaped by what is poured into it and completed by the meaning each viewer brings.

Spring is Here!

By Sheryl Keen • April 22, 2024
Spring is here. There is something special about this season. Winter is finished; there is new life; there is this feeling of rejuvenation, and everything is turning green. The colour green can create a soothing effect. This is why you’ll see variations of it in many bedrooms and bathrooms. Green also brings health and well-being to mind as it is the colour of many leafy vegetables. It is the main colour of nature and we all know how nature can calm and soothe us when we venture outdoors. But green is also about growth and transformation. We see all the new growth outside, but this can also happen on the inside. The showers in spring also make everything fresh, cleansed, and may give us the feeling that we can start anew. And we can. This is the time that many people spring clean their homes and re-organize things and the same can be done for our internal lives. We can clean out our old habits, old thoughts and start new traditions. Spring can have a real significance in our lives in terms of celebrating the rebirth of ourselves. The green of spring may mean growth but it can also mean go! We have been locked away mostly in sedentary mode all winter and now it’s time to move. It’s also a time to plant seeds and watch them grow. These can be seeds outside of ourselves or inside of ourselves. Now that it is go time, go ahead and explore something new. We never know where this new thing will take us. Thanks for reading and stay tuned for my next post. Sheryl

Self Love

By Sheryl Keen • March 18, 2024
Recently, a friend of mine told me that she is trying to be gentle with herself; not to be as overly critical of herself as she tends to be. When it comes to love, our focus usually falls on others. There is nothing wrong with that, the world needs all the love that it can get and if you have love to give, give it. However, we can also give love and care to ourselves in a healthy way. We know that as humans we are imperfect and prone to make mistakes. When we do make mistakes, we need to give ourselves the same grace and love that we give to others. In fact, giving grace to ourselves may make it easier to give it to others. If we are not compassionate to ourselves, it may be difficult to be kind to others. On the other hand, if we can be loving and kind to others when they fall short but full of criticism of ourselves, it means we need a different approach. Self love is not narcissistic. It makes for a healthy way of being. We practice giving love and care to ourselves so that we can be resilient; we can rise and move on from our failures and not be paralysed by extreme self criticism. It means that we can set boundaries that are not easily and constantly breached so that our peace is protected. We can set goals and intentions and pursue our dreams to become our most actualized selves when we practice self love. We are prepared to meet life’s challenges because we are rejuvenated and restored by the daily practice of nurturing ourselves. The love we want to give to others will come easily because our own practice with ourselves teaches us how to give it to someone else. Everything takes time and practice if we are not used to doing it. Let’s be patient with ourselves in the pursuit of this state of being. Thanks for reading and stay tuned for my next post. Sheryl

Fight or Flight

By Sheryl Keen • March 14, 2024
Every day brings its own newness, the opportunity for change and the opportunity for us to grow into our best selves. Today is no different; we just need to decide whether we are going to stay and fight the way things are with ourselves or if we are going to run away. Flight is easy, we don’t even have to go to someplace else; we just need to not pay attention. And while we are busy fleeing what needs to change within ourselves, our higher selves are patiently waiting on us to stand and take action. Fighting is hard; it’s tiring. And when the person you are trying to change is staring you in the mirror; it is even more tiring. But it can be inspiring too. Finding, knowing and being our highest self is a goal and it requires work. And it is challenging work because more than likely, we have been this self for a long time. How dare our highest self try to teach an old dog, a new trick? Is growth worth the fight? Is pushing our limitations and exploring our own endless possibilities worth it? Is reveling in our own self-expansion worth it? I think that it is and so we have to seize the day. Thanks for reading and stay tune for my next post. Sheryl
