I create and share art with the intention of communicating and celebrating sacred, profound and beautiful aspects of life and spirituality.  I aim to make work that references and communicates the vital connections that we are all invited to experience and share in.  I choose to align with the universal current that recognizes life as spirit and spirit as life.  If we claim to hold spirit sacred, then we must hold life sacred.  And even if we do not believe in spirit then all the more reason to hold life sacred. I often think “spirit” is simply a word we use for all the interdimensional technology going on “behind the scenes”.

My art is currently born of experiments and practices with drawing, photography, digital collage, alternative printmaking, mixed media painting and digital meets analogue airbrush body painting. The muses which I currently tap into to create my work include human and animal forms, sacred geometries, and nature.

I use an old oil toner printer from which I assemble a collage of prints which I transfer to pre-painted wood, paper or raw canvass.  The transferred image becomes a layer of the mixed media painted collage as I continue to work the piece with layers of paint towards my goal for a meaningful aesthetic. Harmonic resonance and impact are a plus.

Jeff Sullivan

by Jeff Sullivan | May 14, 2018 | Visual Artists

Jeff Sullivan’s artwork is an attempt to build a bridge to the realm of sacred reality that exists within us all.
Born and raised in Connecticut his artistic endeavors fluctuated between visual art and music.
Seeking a creative profession as an educator he studied music for several years earning a degree at the Hartford Conservatory.
After a profound mystical experience his attention shifted from music to creating artwork with sacred and transcendental attributes.
The synthesis of music and art combined with meditative awareness and shamanic intent coalesced into a form of artwork with resonant, and vibratory qualities.
His work has been recognized and featured in European art magazine Peripheral ARTeries, and the work has been displayed at healing and transformative art festivals throughout the country including “Lucidity” in Santa Barbara California, “Unifier” in Tolland Massachusetts and “Gratitude Migration” in Keansburg New Jersey.
“I feel that art should be of service to humanity.
Not merely to create new aesthetics but to serve as a sign post that points to the truth that we are one living being. It is only the mind made illusion that we are separate from oneness.
May art in whatever form serve to open the portal of love and inspiration and heal the wounds of mankind. ”
Inspired by love, nature, and meditation he continues to peruse his artistic endeavors in Marlborough Connecticut.
