Art that comes Naturally:Spotlight on Kristina Garon“When I am creating art, I don’t sweat it or labor, it just comes to me naturally”Your paintings seem to be an extension of yourself, with a style that is unique to you. How did you develop your strikingstyle of painting?I’m often asked this. My answer is: I never looked for my style. It came to me. I believe that the only way to develop a style isto continue to work. Thinking about style instead of being engaged in the creative process is artificial. I strongly believe that themore an artist works, the stronger his artistic voice becomes. Possibilities for discovery are endless.I never try to copy other artists. Their achievements belong to them. I want to find my own form of artistic expression. Art meansalways knocking loudly at the door of the unknown. When I’m creating art, I don’t sweat it or labor, it just comes to me naturally.Your paintings seem to have meaning on many levels. How does that come about?It’s true that my paintings have a deeper, fuller, clearer meaning that can’t be seen at first glance. It is a reflection of my lifeexperience and positive thoughts fueled by my intuition and imagination. Because I grew up in a very negative, suppressiveenvironment I always wanted to be the opposite. It was my decision and as the result of that decision I became a very positivethinking person. Of course, sometimes bad or frustrating things happen, but it is important not to allow negative emotions toplant ‘roots’ in our souls. We artists are Dreamers, we dare to dream and go toward our dream. I believe that it is absolutely essentialto control our thoughts so as to bring forth only desirable conditions. All power is from within and is absolutely under ourcontrol. Our choices determine who we are and what happens to us. Those thoughts are reflected in my recent paintings Powerof Thoughts, Ways of Life, Tapestry of Life, Soul Searching, Harmony and Eruption of Volcano.18 <strong>ARTisSpectrum</strong>
