Kirsten has also just completed an artist residency at the Everyman Theatre, Liverpool sketching and painting life at the Everyman behind the scenes, capturing the energy and vibrancy of life in a working theatre from intimate moments in rehearsals, the staff in the green room, to costume fittings. Working mainly in acrylics, her portraits celebrate strong women, female empowerment, the divine feminine and the divine human form to show their inner strength, the human resilience, their inner power, emotion and energy and our connection with each other and all that exists. Her artwork concentrates on the fact that everythng is energy, has a vibration and frequency and is all connected to everything else creating an intertwined cause and effect, ie the butterfly effect. One small action or thought somewhere can have a huge effect on something in another place, planet, universe, dimension or density. Her latest series of portraits “Rise of the Divine Feminine” highlights the rise of the Divine Feminine energy within us all at this time of great change, aiming to bring balance to our inner world and thus by extension our outer world and the planet.
