Well over 60 people including the media turned up for the opening of “Colours of Life. A Celebration of Life, Art and Culture” at Hotel Equatorial Kuala Lumpur on 5 January 2012.
The opening party was an unusual art vernisage with the painting “Blossom” coming to life! Fashion designer Nila Palacios had graciously offered to be body painted similar to the painting and dance the feeling and energies of the the painting while I recited my words about the painting to the tunes of Open Your Heart by Ruth Cunningham and Ana Hernandez.

Thanks to partners and sponsors Hotel Equatorial Kuala Lumpur, Carlsberg Breweries, Albatros, Nila Palacios Latin Fashion, Vanitha Murthi, Mosholt Design.
The exhibition had a number of events associated… all in order to raise some money for Yayasan Sunbeams Home… a home for orphaned kids who need more colour in their lives!
The painting “Blossom” came to life to these words:
When a flower is in blossom it is beauty unfolding in front of our eyes, leaf by leaf unfolding. It is the same when a human being starts to blossom, slowly we will see how truly beautiful this person is.
To make ourselves blossom we first need to discover the seed or the purpose that we are here to plant, then we must sow it, water it, nurse it… grow it. Eventually we will blossom. And when we start to blossom we will straighten the back, push forward the chest, raise beyond the ground. We will bloom and become attractive.
What will make you blossom?
