Maya by Stephanie Laine is a Sanskrit word taken from the term Tejomaya which means glorious or full of energy and spirit. Tejo, which can be hung with Maya is also available.

'Maya is a new painting from my 2022 series Citta (meaning mind and emotion). My intention for this series is to explore the interplay of mind and heart (thought and expression) in my creative process. As with many of the Arts, the development of technique and practice over many years forms a sound stage on which expression can dance, without inhibition.  My body and senses have developed a familiar relationship with my 'tools of the trade’, the consistency of paint, the drag of the brush, the timing... There’s an inner sense, or knowing, that evolves from practice that allows the mind to rest. If I can get out of my own way and trust in this relationship, then space opens for intuition to rise and guide the process. My hope for this series is that you can rest in the technique but more importantly, that you can feel the heart and creative expression, as this is where authentic connection and joy reside'.
Maya is painted on quality 12oz canvas stretched on a custom made frame with painted 3.8cm sides, so it's ready to hang.

All paintings are finished in two coats of a satin lacquer for protection and longevity.
