About Paul Heussenstamm

With parents who were deeply involved in both art and spirituality, it seems natural that Paul Heussenstamm would eventually become an accomplished painter of spiritual imagery. However, it wasn't until after developing a successful business that, at the age of thirty-five, he began painting in earnest. Over the next several years, what began as a single art class expanded into a consuming passion, a new profession, and indeed a whole new perspective on life.

Paul explains, 'A new voice had come into being, and I merely began listening and responding to this growing call of the soul.'

A major turning point in his art career came when, at a workshop, he spontaneously created a mandala: an ancient, sacred pattern. Over time, he came to understand the mandala as a psychic map and a symbol of wholeness that can center us through difficult times.
