'The Light Within' paintings by Roshani

Artist Reception: Friday, August 17 from
6-8 p.m. Free and open to the public.

Born in Ireland, Roshani spent her childhood in St. Louis and now lives on the island of Kauai. Her creativity as a painter is deeply linked with her meditation. As a practitioner of Vipassana for many years, Roshani at times attends long silent retreats in India and other parts of the world.

Roshani’s paintings express the silence and joy happening in her innermost being. She conveys her experiences in meditation through the play of colors and light in her paintings. Her paintings are not just the sum total of the colors, they are more, much more – and that ‘more’ is the meaning experienced by the viewer…celebrating the light within you!
