Spiritual art, creativity spirituality and spiritual painting ideas

Spiritual art is interesting to look at for multiple reasons. Just to look at the artwork, or to see if it relates to you and your relation to spirituality. Even more interesting is this when it is abstract spiritual art. This video is inspired by the exhibition catalogue The Spiritual in Art, abstract Paintings 1890 - 1985. Painting spiritual art is also very rewarding. By making spiritual paintings you can learn how to express yourself on this subject. The spiritual artwork that you make can be shown to others what can lead to interesting conversations concerning the spiritual in art. In this video I show spiritual contemporary art and also spiritual modern art which relates to the paintings I make show spiritual painting ideas or creative spirituality.

Just to let you know, I taught art in the public schools in northern California for 30 years. Yet, I enjoy watching your program, because there is still so much more to learn about art. You inspire me in every video.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks Jacqueline, always nice to begin my day with a compliment. Good to hear you still love art in this way. Albert

[@civantina]

What an interesting proposal! This kind of work needs a very deep reflection on oneself. A creative way for personal development. Thank you Albert, I need to rewatch this video.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Con Civ, thanks! This means a lot to me. You get what it is about. To me painting is always about personal development. Enjoy painting 'with yourself'. Bye, Albert

[@civantina]

@@ImperfectPaintings I paint also from the inside

[@TJ-zs7gn]

I think your soul is very kind and beautiful, you have a good connection between yourself and the world. I’m excited to think about and try this project

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi T J, thanks. I guess you're touring through my channel, thanks. It's a different way of making art, not so much the image but the idea, the energy behind it. Introspection. I love it. Albert

[@TJ-zs7gn]

@@ImperfectPaintings yes Albert I’m late to the game so I am taking an artistic tour of your channel . It’s a wonderful journey, you make a difference to many peoples life’s and artistic journey so keep being you. The one great thing about Covid is that I have had a chance to re-engage my creative side

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi T J, thanks for supporting me to expres myself. And the plus side of this pandemic is indeed for a lot of people the opportunity to spend more time on creative endeavors. Stay safe a d happy painting, Albert

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks Artist, it's an interesting subject. Albert

[@barbh1]

This is such a great episode of your channel. Thanks!

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, Barbh1. There's more to just paint and letting your creativity flow. Which aspect did you like the most? Just curious. Albert

[@barbh1]

@@ImperfectPaintings I watched it again so I would remember what to say. The whole thing with your narration was heart lifting. I especially liked the black block painting where you started with a little tunnel, then found the way around it to connect with the essence of your creativity - if I am understanding it a little bit. I also liked how you used the white paint to increase the size of the tunnel. You could see through the white to the black underneath. I just liked how that looked. I watched the video you recommended, and found I liked yours better. Bedankt voor alles!

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, barbh1, for coming back on this. I watched the video as well. It was already a while ago. Yes, I liked the painting with the tunnel as well. I often get lost in going around in circles in my mind, and by visualization like this, overseeing the situation, I can see a way out. Of course, I thought about the video and what to show and tell in it beforehand. But when painting, other or new things pop up and often lift the whole to another level. Beyond my imagination. Only by actually starting to paint, things can come out into the light. This is the Do, Do, Doing-part I often talk about and what I wish for everyone. Just some paint on paper and magic can happen. Albert

Lots of food for meditation here...thank you Albert

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Philna, do you watch my video for meditation or are you going to paint for it?😁 Thanks for commenting. Have a happy day, Albert

Thanks Parisa

Thanks jeylful, I'm glad you liked it. Albert

[@trishchester5796]

I'm intrigued by your work, thank you for sharing it...

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Thanks, Trish. Most people gor for pretty pictures, but meaning can ve just as interesting. Albert

[@culturefan]

I too thought of af Klint. Another artist that comes to mind is Rothko. Another that may have been influenced by Klint is Stephen Mueller. Either way which ever way one wishes to portray spirituality as art is an individual choice.

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Culture Fan, thanks. I like the idea of painting the unseen, which ever thing one thinks of by that word. Be it religious, spiritual, emotions or whatever, preferably abstract. Creating is this way is personal and I love it for that reason. Have a nice week, Albert

[@ZainAli-xr9tu]

Hi... I admire your work.... And i must say that your soul wants illumination and illuminated spiritual access... It is possible when your ego is away from the body... Thanks...

[@ZainAli-xr9tu]

I can paint a sketch in your soul to get access to the only one illuminated foundation.. Contact me

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi Zain, thanks but no thanks. Albert

[@TJ-zs7gn]

Additionally my best work comes from my soul

[@ImperfectPaintings]

Hi T J, I get this. It's a way of expressing your true you, bypassing cultural conditioning and other mental ideas. I would love to see your artwork, do you share it on social platforms somewhere? Albert

[@TJ-zs7gn]

@@ImperfectPaintings Albert I do and would love to share with you can I email it to you

[@ImperfectPaintings]

I would love that, you can find my email address in the description under the video of a few weeks ago, the one with the question mark, named 'invitation to paint'. I don't share it here because I don't know what computer would pick it up. Albert
