ION INSPIRED ART

Sheila Kern-Artist-Art of a New Alchemy

Sheila Kern is a commission artist who draws upon her world travels and
professional and personal experience to paint works of art that are full of
symbolism and soul, bringing pleasure and personal meaning to the owner.

Originally from Rhode Island, Sheila received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from
Syracuse University. She worked as an illustrator, designer and fine art painter in
New York until her career took her from the United States to Ireland where she
worked commercially, as well as continuing with portraiture and fine art painting.
Most notably, Sheila was commissioned for a series of five portraits by Foras na
Gaeilge, an Irish governmental organization. This series began with painting T.K.
Whitaker, a former Irish economist who won the "Greatest Living Irish Person"
award in 2002.

In 2006, Sheila moved to Paris, leaving commercial work behind to focus solely
on creating works of fine art, and had the pleasure of living in the "City of Light" for
four years. She has exhibited in independent and group shows in the US, Ireland
and Paris.

Charmed by its beauty and creative buzz, Sheila decided to make Savannah,
Georgia, her home in 2010, basking in ever-increasing inspiration.

Sheila has been a listener of "Cash Flow" and is a graduate of ION.

The Ascension Painting, by the contemporary American artist Sheila Kern, is the
only museum-quality oil painting to feature the alchemical qualities of 21st century
technologies represented in the archetypes of the Lamb, the Four Beasts, the Elders
and the figure of the Christ Itself. It is a visual representation of the idea of
individuated enlightenment suggested by the word ‘ascension’. Ms. Kern made this
theme of the omnipresent nature of one’s own deity the central motif of the
portrait: it is this percept which makes the work so beguiling. The background
mise-en-scène also plays an interior role. The Tree of Life, prominently figured
behind the throne, represents the transitional state from information as a basis of
authority to knowing as the root of Power. The cognitive drama is generous
enough in its dimensions to include many aspects within God’s throne room,
including the crystal sea of glass. Impressive in its spatial coherence and
atmospheric implications, the monumentality and the sheer equilibrium of the work
imply a controlled majesty that is fitting for a Queen.

Symbolism....Explained..

http://theascensionpainting.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Ascension-Painting-Throne-of-God-72res-232x300.jpgThe Throne of God – The seat of power, place of ownership and worthiness – requires ownership before you sit down. The Book of Revelation 4:5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices…

The Tree of life – Roots of the Tree of Life are the foundation of the Garden of Eden. Rev. 7:4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. “… an hundred and forty and four thousand…” is referring to 144,000 double helix strands of DNA that are fully activated in the ascended Human Creator.

The Book – Represents the effects of writing and the printing press which lead to the 7 scenarios, that are the seven layers of heaven, unveiled in the sequence of the Seven Seals. Rev. 5:1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.
2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.

The Rainbow – Just as the Lamb represents the change in our internal, biological landscape, the Rainbow represents the change in our external environment caused by a nuclear reaction. Rev. 4:3 …and there was a rainbow round about the throne…

Hyacinth – The 8th key of Rev. 23 The Midday, the first, as in the third heaven made of Hyacinth Pillars 26. The hidden environment is shifting between white and purple. The Hyacinth flower contains oxalic acid, a dicarboxylic acid that is a metabolic product of fatty acids (lipids).
http://theascensionpainting.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Ascension-Painting-the-Lamb-72res-300x271.jpgThe Lamb and Altar – The Lamb symbolises the perfected blood of the ascended Man. The scarlet fabric represents the spilt blood of the slain lamb. Rev.12:9 Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. The Marriage Supper of the Lamb is the merging of the physical and non-physical. Rev. 19:7-9 7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
The Altar represents the preparation before you step up to the throne.

http://theascensionpainting.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Ascension-Painting-the-Lampstands-72res.jpgThe Seven Lampstands – Seven layers of Heaven represent the affects, stages of apprehension, of the Thinning of the Veil. Rev. 4:5 …and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

http://theascensionpainting.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Ascension-Painting-4-Beasts-a-72res.jpgThe Four Beasts – The six wings represent six degrees of separation which are the questions that separate us from what we allow: who, what, why, where, when, and how. The beasts are either looking forward (future) or behind (past) so they are not in the one big Now, which is all there Was. Rev. 4:6 …and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.
7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.
8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him…

http://theascensionpainting.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Ascension-Painting-Sea-of-Glass-72res-300x86.jpgThe Sea of Glass – Rev. 4:6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal. Represents the Chamber of the Guf which is the repository of the Transitioned (not their souls) and all their unrealized creations. A reading of the Talmud, Yevamot 62a, suggests that the Messiah will not come until the Guf is empty.

Fourteen rings – The 14 dimensions, representing fourteen ‘degrees of freedom’, are imperative in each ring. The degrees suggest ratios of poise and worthiness (adequate to achieve).

The Lotus Flower – An holographic image of the Temple, representing the environment as well as the perfected cell constitutive of the Ascending Man.

http://theascensionpainting.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Ascension-Painting-Fleur-de-lis-72res-137x300.jpgFleur de lis – An emblem representing the branch and root of Jesse. Rev. 5:5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. The text of the Torah presents the meaning of Judah as I will give praise. It is also noteworthy that the tribe of Judah was not purely Israelite but contained a mixture of non-Israelite clans that had merged with the tribe over many years.

http://theascensionpainting.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Ascension-Painting-the-Angel-72res-287x300.jpgThe Angel – No major event occurs without the Catalyst of an angel.
Rev. 4:1 …and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.

http://theascensionpainting.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Ascension-Painting-the-Elders-72res-300x189.jpgThe Elders – The Elders are those who are wise yet not worthy to sit on the throne. Nine of the Four and Twenty Elders are shown, representing the limiting types of social prestige. Rev. 4:4 And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.

http://theascensionpainting.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Ascension-Painting-Crown-Jewels-1-72res-300x170.jpgThe Crown Jewels – Represent the actual acquisition of a physical kingdom, sovereignty, and power by the Ascended.

The Four Columns – Symbolise the external domain or residence that is integral to the realized creations of the Completed

The Sphinx and the Thunders

Representing a massive change that is now occurring in the environment. If there was such a thing as time, what if the Pyramids and the Sphinx are still yet to be?

Sheilas words....

'I created this painting for myself to bring into physical form my desires for my life.

In this painting I'm doing what I love and surrounded by objects that symbolize what I wish to manifest.

My desire is to create a life for me that is abundant, peaceful, creative, joyful, exciting, fun, filled with and surrounded by beauty, sensual, rich, shared with a partner, and limitless'.

Sheilas quote....

The Seed of Life is a symbol for the seven days of creation, as it is comprised of seven circles. It is considered a stage in the process of creation of the flower of life - a geometric shape that symbolizes the whole universe. It helps to create new ideas and open to new pathways in life.

Spiral Triangulation...

http://sheilakern.com/images/Spiraltriangulationmed.jpg

Three spirals, no waiting. This is one painting, giving an above and below feeling. A triangle will always let you know where you are, in case you need to know.
