BabsBilliArt About my art

 BabsBilliArt 

Life has changed for me dramatically over the past few years. After living in New Zealand for almost forty years I have returned to Europe. I did not move back to Switzerland as I followed my inner guidance to a place wherever it may be in Europe. This lead me to the beautiful country of Estonia where I could fulfil a dream held for a very long time. 

So the past three years I was busy renovating and creating my space, Solar panels, a Geothermal heating system and a Greenhouse to grow my food. A small space in the middle of nowhere. Wildlife walking around my Garden. I tried to create a Garden filled with goodies for the Birds, Insects, Deer, Rabbits, a Fox and many more.

In between, I continued my meditation, mudras, mantras etc. And I  practice my photography as it is such a joy to capture nature with my camera. This leads me to participate in the photo challenges Gurushots https://gurushots.com/babshealing/photos. This Ignited a new passion in me. Editing photos and being creative with my camera...wow you can turn anything into a positive tool that will create awareness in the realm of emotions, feelings, thoughts and the body. It creates more healing, and growth and brings more peaceful energy to the soul.

My Photography started to take off. Never before did I actually have anything really taking off in this way. I feel here I have to say thank you to a very special friend who came into my life just over a year ago. He is the most inspiring, positive and uplifting, beautiful soul I have ever met. Meeting this beautiful person made me understand the damage lifelong criticism can cause to a human being. honest criticism is necessary but getting criticized for everything we do, explore or don't do the way mainstream expects from you when your upbringing, your friends and family members just want the best for you, and therefore they criticize, and nag at you until you yourself start to doubt everything you do because you want to fit into the mould you want to please your friends, family and so on. But your inner voice is telling you differently. I have lived with being criticized my entire life, called crazy, and weird, and all my ideas, and ways of doing things ridiculed, but it never stopped me from doing what I felt was right for me without the support it often was a real battle. But things changed almost instantly when I met this beautiful human soul. My special friend has supported me in everything I do, have done and he is listening, is curious about anything, and his support has helped me to break through my lifelong insecurity and my self-sabotaging tendencies. 

When we get the support no matter how crazy our ideas are, they have a better chance to succeed than when from word go we get criticised and put down, then they sure are destined to fail. So always support your friends, and lift them up, you do not have to agree with them, be gentle with them and allow them to walk their journey. 

Never too old to learn, heal and grow. So here I am with a new project. I want to explore NFTs. I want to create NFTs that bring together my art, photography, colour, spirituality and healing. So watch this blog for news about when I will launch my first NFT. Through my special friend, I have come to learn a lot about digital technology, from crypto to NFTs. The universe is filled with possibilities and we can make the impossible possible.

My philosophy has always been about exploring things, trying things out first before judging them, taking a chance, giving it a go, breaking through my fears, exploring the impossible and making it possible In numerology my life path is about being a teacher by example. I always do my best to practice anything before I teach it when writing about my experience.

Back in New Zealand, I did soul painting as a form of healing myself. 

An article got printed about my art in an Art magazine, The New Zealand Artist magazine August 2016

My photography in print exhibitions in Chicago, Hanoi, Barcelona and London, many of my photos were exhibited also in digitally all around the world and in many photographers' magazines online. 2022

My fox comes to visit from time to time

In memory of the cat Stanley, I used to feed for a friend when she was away on holidays. A gorgeous black cat.

Animals and nature can be our greatest teachers. My pets have taught me so much, they have opened doors for new tools and healing methods for me.

And now I guess you will ask me what is an NFT.....I have no idea how to explain this to my readers right now, so to me, I need to go and actually create one I think I will be using OpenSea marketplace to sell it on, and maybe then I will be able to explain it more. So be patient and wait for my next post.

Sadly the NFT situation has not worked out for me due to too many scams and I lost my first 22 Nfts on OpenSea. So my PhotoArt is now available as prints on Saatchi Art  To be fair I believe my Art hanging on someone's wall in someone's home is far more rewarding than thinking of my art being a token in someone's digital wallet. But this does not mean I will never try NFTs again, no, I just will wait until it becomes a bit more secure and more reliable.
