Joma Sipe

Joma Sipe owns a studio in the city of Vila Nova de Gaia, near Portugal. Early in his career, he painted ordinary motifs as landscapes and facades, using oils and acrylics with exuberant colors. Soon, he realized he could use his paintings to express his inner spiritual feelings and promptly began to do so.

Since very earlier, 13-15 years of age, he started feeling an inner inquietation to discover the reasons for living in this planet and trying to answer the common phrases as "Where do we came from?", "What are we doing here?", "To where shall we go?"...

These inner questions took him to the public library where he found ancient books in Portuguese by Blavatsky and Besant. Then he soon realize a profound and inexplicable deep inner connection with Blavatsky and her teachings. He had the opportunity to read "Isis Unveiled", "The Secret Doctrine", "The Voice Of Silence", among other texts by HPB. Searching among other books he learned about the inner system of Chakras, Occult Anatomy, Sacred Geometry, The Golden Number, several meditation and concentration techniques, the Ego, Alquimical Process, Kabalah, between many many other occult and esoteric subjects.

Joma's painting process starts with a simple blank canvas, where he sits and waits for inspiration. Once this happens, he begins drawing lines with gold and silver ink, using sacred geometry to create his designs. He then uses intuition and his own inner vision to locate and enhance energy points throughout the painting.

In each work, there exists a dispersion and concentration of light that emanates from each line. The principle goal in each painting is to transmit an inner spiritual image or sacred feeling through these lines and energy points.
