Custom Soul Expression – your channeled artwork

Hello & welcome…

Would you like a bespoke artwork that is unique to you, your Soul Expression- in a Channeled Painting?

I am now offering “Your Soul Expression” commissions.

The Journey Begins– After connecting with you, and talking, this may require several conversations, I gather some essential info/ elements that will be included in your personalised artwork. I then, sit with this for a bit & start to get a feeling for a concept… I will then, intuitively create your piece over a few weeks. I combine your own energy with what I am led to create as I paint ‘in the moment’.

This can include, marks, symbols, faces, nature, animals, stars, planets and more, it’s limitless.

Examples of things you may like to include…
Up to 3 favourite colours that speak to your soul
Birds, nature , ocean, or something that is important to you/your history/ your story…

The Magic– The fewer ‘things/info ‘ I have the better I can be free without limitation to tap into that place where the visions / knowings come easily & clearly.

You receive– Your bespoke artwork on a canvas, stretched over a wooden frame, wired, ready to hang. It is signed by me, and dated on the back…. Also…

My gift to you– you will also receive your choice of Guidance Cards (either English or Te Reo Māori) or, an A3 photocard print of your choice of my images.

I would be honoured to connect with you, and to start the journey of your soul expression in an art form.

Please either message me using the contact button with any queries & I would love to chat with you about the next steps…. or go here to my online shop for more info…

(please note: I have very limited spaces per year for this type of work, and it can take up to 3 months to complete).

Many thanks

Native & Real, Bright & Energising

I think this has to be one of my favourite pieces I have ever created. It has a vibrancy, an energy about it,.. its so alive and raw. I have reluctantly let it go to a gallery , but I wont be disappointed it it doesn’t sell (lol!) Id love to keep it 🙂
Its a mixed media piece: collage, ink, acrylic.

Another Large Commission to the Bahamas

This 4 piece painting , 2m x 2m is off to the Bahamas once done.

Each panel is 1m square.

My buyers live on a canal , and wanted all the colours of the water and sky. Their inspiration was my ‘Legend’ series.

I’m using acrylics and inks, and am about 3/4 way through at this point.

PERU & BOLIVIA- art inspiration

I have just returned from 2 weeks in Peru, and 2 days in Bolivia. An epic adventure, non stop experiences, a visual feast, awesome people, not really adequate words available to describe the experience, or feeling one has whilst there. Vibrancy, depth, history, passion, sacred, ancient, connected, energy… it was a once in a lifetime journey, I will never forget.  Cant wait to start painting, and see what evolves.

Whale / Tohora Commission 

This is a commission for a friend. Ive painted loads of whales, but decided to change the angle of this, I wanted it to more dramatic. I akso, for the first tine am using acrlic markers for some of the detailing , certainly alot faster than brush & ink.
Really happy how it’s progressing so far 🙂

Mixed Media Elephant & Butterfly-Bali Sacred Marks Art Retreat

©Reina Cottier Art – Finished : SOLD

Feeling really attached to this lil guy, he carries the very special energy of the Bali Elephant Sanctuary I went to on my recent art retreat Bali trip. All the elephants were rescued from Sumatra where the jungles are being desecrated for palm oil. 😦  I used powers, inks predominantly, with some acrylic.

I have had a huge amount of butterflies fly into, around and over me lately. I always have at least 2 butterflies in progress. This mixed media piece is about 3/4 done. I love the pop of orange 🙂

Carnival Peacock

 

This, just finished, is a commissioned peacock from a wonderful friend of mine
from my school days.
There is something really liberating about using these colours, something uplfiting
and joyous. Reminded me of a carnival.

Feature Article on Reina Cottier in ‘Coromandel Goodness”

Inner Goddess

Inner Goddess One  sig 1000

Every now and then I have what I call a ‘shift’ in my creative expression
This was one of them 🙂 This magical goddess appeared suddenly while I was fluffing around with mixed media, having my usual fun, music blasting, half dancing, swaying around the studio… boom, there she was 🙂 !!

Wow i thought… this is something I really resonate with, something I can get VERY excited about. I knew she was going to be the first in a series… the ‘Inner Goddes’ series, number One.
How very satisfying.

She is availbale for purchase Please message me if interested.

Recently Completed Works

After a  somewhat prolific painting period in Feb/MArch, I was so pleased to be able to have some of these on display for the Mercury Bay Art Escape (Studio tour) recently. Also  happy that some sold, and some are going to 2 separate galleries in our region.
I am totally loving my new abstract pieces, harking back to my first days of painting, and combining with some techniques both learned/inspired from others, and also self discovery as I go.

and last but not least , a commission I completed for a man who owns a Bed & Breakfast on the shores of our beautiful Lake Taupo, named after our native owl, ‘Ruru’, with views of the lake, and Mt’s Tongariro, Ngarahoe & Ruapehu. He asked for the owl to be the feature and for it to be set at night….I was really pleased with how it turned out.101 with sig

New Works! – Falcon, Whale Tail, Peacocks.

I barely know where to start…. after having 6 weeks of no creativity thru end of December and January 2016 (kids on summer school holidays here in New Zealand), I have thrown myself back into it with a vengeance and so much stored up creative ideas, its like I cant stop and nor do i want to!

So this year has been about breaking thru some boundaries I was starting to get stuck in with my art last year. I still LOVE my precise detailing and fine lines, but I needed and wanted to do something alot freer and alot faster, so im having day on, day off with commissions (precise detailing taking alot of focus and time) and this new technique i hahve literally thrown myself into. Fast, no thinking, mixed media, ink, stencils, sticks, scrapers, acrylic, enamel spray and anything else i can get my hands on…. layers and layers of detail, to then use it for inspo to pick out something, in this case peacocks. 🙂
This first one is in progress, still have some to do, but its pretty much there,… totally LOVED these, they satisfied the aspect of me that is messy, uncontrolled, i even used my left hand (I am right handed) for some of it to make sure it was naive and not contrived in anyway.
