Erika M. Klein (aka - emkpainter)
I create mandalas, a traditional practice, and combine that with the less structured aspects of abstraction. I work in paint and digitally. By using instinct and controlled accidents, a dialogue between myself the artworks emerge, and ultimately with the viewer as well. Personally, I often define these circular paintings as windows into the soul because my inspiration comes from my innermost feelings, thoughts, and experiences. I never work from a preconceived notion of what the final appearance will or should be.

My intention in the end is to have the viewer feel, think, question.

Thanks for the friend request.


The mandalas are beautiful but I also like the fashion from recycled materials and the figure paintings. You have a great eye and a unique vision. I can't wait to see more.

I've watched Buddist monks create mandalas here in Wilmington - days of creation and then offer to the ocean.........so meditative..........


Great work

OK. I'll put one up if I can figure out how to upload it but it won't really be of my work. It's late. I'll write more tomorow.

 Thank you for the comment on the nudes. I did them early last year (07). I enjoy trying different things all the time. I do work from live models or at least it starts out that way. It seems that right now the expenses (for the model fees) are greater than the profit from the finished paintings.  But I have had some good comments from the finished paintings.
