Dhira Lawrence's paintings exalt both her relationship to a spiritual realm and her connection to the natural world; these bonds were formed at a very young age. She grew up in Hawaii with her bare feet on the ground, surrounded by the ocean with its deep waters and changing tides. In 2010, the tragic and unexpected passing of her husband changed the landscape of Dhira's world and her artistic career. She turned to painting, consciously becoming a conduit for receiving and facilitating deep healing.
