David Olson, their Golden-doodle, Mozy and their gangster cat, Will-O.

“If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite.” William Blake, painter, poet. I adore infinite possibilities and I leave my doors wide open.

I diffuse specific essential oils and paint to binaural tones, specifically 528 Hz.  I come into coherence with Spirit, open portals and the fun begins.

My work uses all media, nothing is off the table. My paintings are textural, dimensional, exuberant, prophetic and profoundly healing.

I paint in the spiritual tradition of William Blake, and although he painted in a romantic style, in contrast to my more abstract vision, we still pull from the same source. We share the same desire to bring heaven to earth, to inspire, to ascend and transform.

Susan Hazzlerigg Malcik lives in Austin, Texas, after having spent over 30 years living in 12 countries around the world. Her adventures inform her work in textile design, jewelry making, clothing design, and rehabilitating vintage lamp shades.

Japanese sumi ink, watercolors, textile paint, alcohol ink, and acrylic markers were used in painting many of these shades. Others were covered in satin or silk cotton fabric of Susan’s design, based on her photography
or sketches.
