Featured Artist Yasmeen Beyhum | Artsy Shark

I’m an artist who focuses on life’s changes and points of initiation. My paintings capture those big moments when life transforms us. I also love helping others unlock their creative potential and use art to access their inner guidance.

As an artist, my philosophy on life is that we are always evolving from a space of limitless potential. I refer to this journey as Unveiling Life’s Canvas. My art serves as a companion and guide on the journey of transformation and life’s initiations.

Through art, I’ve explored various painting techniques, from watercolors and acrylics to unconventional tools like old kid’s shoes, window wipers, and large palette knives. I’ve also experimented with spray paint, window mesh, tile cement, and various mediums. The learning is ongoing.

My art began as a way to express my deep emotions and to let go of illusionary notions. Through my art I aim to create a container for deep self-reflection, restoration, and expanding the viewer’s mind, ultimately inspiring a connection to inner stillness, where there is a deep inner truth and knowingness.

I believe we are our own guides and healers. Art extends our power, vision, imagination, and potential for transformation. It’s a safe space and playground for intuitive guidance and embodied transformation.

My approach is informed by my work in healing and spiritual connection. I seek a wise and compassionate heart. I often reflect that, “in a world where everyone wants to be seen, I want to see.” I’m a student of the external world, immersing myself in water, forest walks, and exploring ancient caves. Yet, I practice sitting in silence, expressing messages and sensations through art, sound, and journaling.

Abstract painting places me between what I know and what’s yet to be revealed, creating a tension point for new manifestations to take place. Through this approach, each new painting becomes “my best painting ever,” marking an uncanny rate of growth and meeting life’s challenges with a centered stillness. Soon, I’ll invite my audience to join my journey through art with healing and transformative Activations, accessing their inner guru.
