California artist, Letty Del Val Peters transcends time and space using visions from the spiritual realm to inspire her work. She practices mindfulness, transcendental meditation, and paints multidimensional patterns mixed with realism onto canvas. Peters original roots touch base in Orange County, California. She currently resides in a small town called Fraint in central California with her family. Peters spiritual gift to channel messages, visions, and angelic figures in the spiritual realm roots in her daily practice of transcendental meditation and bible study. As Peters celebrates her first solo exhibition with the “Symbol of Peace” series, she plans for her next series, “Messages from Heaven”. The success of her first solo exhibition ripples into her neighborhood in California. She sold over 25 prints and three original works within five hours from her “Symbols of Peace” series. The genesis of the creative process for Peters “Is to stay present in the moment and allow the spiritual messages to come through.” When the fires were running rampant in California, the news covered a story highlighting a family burning alive in their car and showed the burnt baby car seat. Peters was in awe of the terrors of the California fires. She found herself praying at night. “I prayed for angels to protect the people and animals in danger,” said Peters, “Then a vision came to me as an angel standing on a cliff looking at the fires. I sketched the vision that night then painted it the next day and named it, Silent Watcher.” The painting, Silent Watcher, sold during her solo exhibition. Peters shared personal stories, spiritual visions with other Californians during the exhibit. She received responses from the audience how they saw animals in the shape of smoke in her painting, Silent Watcher. Peters creative process remains pure and authentic. She sketches visions and spiritual messages as they arise in the present moment then, paints on canvas with acrylic. Peters often infuses watercolor and markers to add a mixed media flavor to her work. She starts with quieting the mind and practicing transcendental meditation. “I meditate before I paint,” said Peters, “I want to be completely present. I want to feel the energy come from within and transcend into physical reality.” Visions of angels come to life on Peters’ canvas. Her personal story of touching the essence of angels began when she was young. “When I was five years old, I got separated from my parents and lost in a market place in Mexico,” said Peters, “A young teenage boy saw me panic with fear when I was lost, walked up to me and held my hand. His face was glowing and his presence was so peaceful. I was no longer in panic. Everything was at peace once he took my hand. He then walked me into a police station, this glowing beautiful boy, and told me to sit here to wait for my parents. Eventually, my parents arrived. The police told my parents I walked in alone. They did not see the glowing teenage boy holding my hand. The young teenage boy was an angel.” Peters, now 50, paints with the same peaceful feeling she had when holding the hand of the angelic teenage boy in Mexico at the supermarket. She sees angels. She paints angels. She is a channel for the spiritual realm. “As I walk through this spiritual journey as an artist, I shine my light to others. Everyone has the same soul. We are one,” said Peters. Spiritual visions reveal themselves to Peters through her practice of prayer, transcendental meditation in nature, and at her local Buddhist temple. “I believe meditation is a portal. It helps with any type of anxiety or stress. I remain settled and centered to create from a place of peace,” said Peters. Peters is active member from Art NXT Level and took on Sergio Gomez’ “small works” challenge. She was a computer programmer for 20 years and let go from her job two years ago. Shortly after, Peters found herself immediately buying new canvas. She then researched and found Art NXT Level to catapult her career. “I started with a challenge Sergio gave us, the small work challenge,” said Peters, “This taught me a lot about persistence and diligence as an active artist. Art NXT Level has taught me how to meet my goals and to create a timeline as an artist. In essence, artists work for themselves.” “Sergio guided me in the right direction. He gave constant feedback and answered all my questions. I am forever grateful,” said Peters, “He’s the catapult that pushed me out into my career in art.” Her “Symbols of Peace” series comprised of ten different pieces, communicates the sound of the universe as vibration coming out to the masses. This series captures the movement and vibrations of sound within the universe. The piece within this series, “Primordial Sound”, came to Peters during meditation practice. “The vision came to me when I was meditating at the Buddhist temple,” said Peters, “I felt the symbol of OM, the sound of the universe.” Peters continues to practice Christian faith and Buddhism. “I’ve lived and read numerous spiritual books. I understand it’s all interconnected – All these faiths are connected,” said Peters. Peters art transcends time and rewires the viewer’s mind to see angelic visions and messages on canvas.
