Sonya creates from the heart seeing Art as a spiritual alchemy – the divine dance of bringing inspiration into being : Her paintings of empyrean consciousness expressing itself (or large scale iridescent abstracts of the cosmos) are created by 'cosmosis' – subtly absorbed minglings with universal forces.

Sonya Rothwell Limited Edition pieces are rebirths of her otherworldly oils : Like space, Sonya’s creations expands in all directions, off canvas onto clothes, scarves, ties, cushions, fabric, wallpaper, lampshades and objet blurring the boundaries of art and design.Sonya's eye for style, colour & composition and extensive knowledge of print is built upon many years as a designer, art director and fine artist following her formal arts training at Central St Martins, London.Being a nomadic free-spirit ever in search of colour & culture, her urge to leave no stone unturned regularly steers her off the beaten track allowing for sacred time out to also journey within : Wanderlust abound, Sonya climbed the Himālaya, a source of her inspiration, to reach for the stars from the highest place on Earth : The transcendent mountain range is considered a deity and the path to enlightenment : Ascending the Himālaya to Heaven is known in Sanskrit as Swargarohini (Swarga meaning 'Heaven' and Arohini meaning 'ascent') : Amidst ascent Sonya photographed her celestial pieces on the beautiful people she met inhabiting Manaslu – Mountain of The Spirit as she made her own journey to Swarga.
