The Gateway Series
The latest languages now available are:
- Russian The Hidden Geometry of Life
- French Gateway to the Heavens.
Links to suppliers are on my website.
My manuscript for the third book in The Gateway Series is extremely close to completion and ready for editing. Over the last year I spent a considerable amount of time working on a major part of it to do with experiencing sacred geometry for yourself. I cannot tell you more without giving it all away, except to say that this book is much more practical than theoretical. Once the manuscript is submitted it will be at least a year before it appears in the bookshops and I will be spending many, many hours at a screen doing the diagrams and reviewing spreads!
Over the next few months I will doing regular updates on my progress via my BLOG.

Detail of Flames of Passion, mixed media
Karen's Art
Several recent additions have been made to my galleries, which I update as they are completed. Recently I have been experimenting with Pebeo mixed media. New mixed media pieces recently loaded onto my galleries include, Communicate With Passion, Flames of Passion (detail above), passion seems to have been a theme of late.
Over the next year I hope to be working (writing permitting) on some much larger pieces with much more structured themes having been inspired by Wilma af Klint and Kandinsky.

Gallery dedicated to the human form
This month I have also added a gallery called Figures. In their own right our bodies are masterpieces of geometry that are made evident in numerous ways. Then our bodily vehicles are brought to life by our thoughts and vibrant coloured emotions. Added to this are symbolic gestures, body positions, expressions and attire. All these and more enhance the richness of the human experience. In spirituality all of these things, as well as the use of the human form to convey abstract ideas, or humanise etheric beings, provide a fertile ground for creative expression.
Above: With Due Consideration
Pondering on thoughts before responding with a strong sense of personal identity, physically and spiritually. A masculine, 'active' and intense form. Looking directly at the viewer, unwaveringly. A stick, or staff, gives stability and strength as well as making a connection to the ground. A serious sense to this piece can indicate that you either need to ‘lighten up’, or pause more to give more consideration to the consequences of your thoughts, words and actions.

Water feature
by Sam Soundy
Reader Sam Soundy is a garden designer from Sri Lanka. This elegant water feature creates a healing space at the centre of a home. Open to the sky, plants will eventually be dangling down towards it. It is a complete reflection of itself from all angles. Quartz and rose quartz crystals are laid inside all the triangles in the centre and outer ring. This sculpture can also be lit up to add the 5th Element.

Resting
Resting is a work in progress, the interim stages of which will be posted on my blog. Eventually it will be in the Figures gallery.
