Paintings and seals. Learning to perceive
What exactly do you perceive when you look at a painting: the image, the artist's energy, time, or another space? The surviving part of this meeting explores paintings and seals within the author's spiritual approach. It is less about examining what is painted than learning to perceive.

Explore different possible layers of contact with a painting
Return to your own observation rather than a ready-made interpretation
In the author's words“The point is not how it is painted.”
What the conversation covers
- Seals and the transmission of energy
- The painting, its creator, time, and the spiritual being
- Valery Lomovtsev's imagery
- The distinction between the visual image and perception
This is a recording of a live meeting with participants' questions and examples. The topics describe its contents; they are not an outline for a separate course.
This is part of a conversation about spiritual perception of art. The beginning of the meeting is missing, so it is not presented as a complete lesson.
Return to your own experience.
- What do I perceive when I look at this image?
- Am I automatically assuming that I am coming into contact with the artist's personality?
- What remained my own observation, and what did I fill in from the explanation?
