ART TODAY 031018 Between the Worlds by Outi Harma – Best advice received, "Don’t blame and be the victim. Take responsibility for your life."

Within our daily routines we can become lost in the superficial where our focus gets narrowed and limited. We are also getting more disconnected to nature. What if we could slow down to hear the earth? What if we could see the layers between the physical and non-physical world where the trees would share their wisdom and we would humbly listen.

TribeLA Magazine Acrostic Interview.4

Advice: What is the best advice you’ve received? What is the best advice you can give? Don’t blame and be the victim. Take responsibility for your life. Outer world reflects what you are not giving to yourself and others.

Aura: How would you describe your energy, style, etc.? Clear aura and very stylish!!

Room: Where in your home do you work? If not in your house, where do you feel most compelled to create? I can feel that something in my psyche opens up in spaces with high ceilings and lot’s of light. I am just moving into a new place with a studio in the backyard. I also have outside studio/gallery on Pico Blvd. They both have high ceilings. Feeling blessed with my spaces to create!

To be continued tomorrow…

Outi Harma is originally from Lapland, Finland. Over twenty years ago her move to the warm, multicultural city of Los Angeles was the catalyst that catapulted her creative expression. Her images create exciting worlds that merge the visible and invisible. Her years of exploration in movement, dance and performance art, brings a wide variety of characters, fluidity and emotion to her paintings. Colors are bold and vibrant. Her main character appears to be a archetypal, mythological female who often illuminates soulful, spiritual power along with a earthly whimsicality. Her paintings can take you from the beautiful, playful childlike realm to the spiritual and physiological depths where your soul expands.

New Year ART REVIEW of Arrival Time by Outi Harma

  This is how Outi describes her painting process: There are two main ways that I start my paintings. The most common method is improvisational. I start with mixing and playing with colors. Images begin to appear spontaneously as I paint. I love being surprised by what will manifest on the canvas and letting it tell me a story, instead of having a preconceived idea of what the painting will look like. Then there are times while I am in a meditative state, in movement or just sitting in stillness when an image will come to me and keep reappearing over time until I paint it.

TribeLA Magazine Acrostic Interview.2

Influence: What effect do you hope to have on us?

I really don’t think about how I want to affect people with my art work. I do it for very selfish reasons. I paint for my own well being, but I hear it has some good side effects on others.

Back: If you could choose a past literary/art/music movement to be a part of, which would you choose?

I am sure it would have been interesting to learn from the tormented expressionist painters, but if I could choose from anything I would have loved to hang around 13th-century Persian poets/mystics Rumi and Hafiz.
