About Me:
My interpretations of the magical surrealism have some very personal characteristic touches which are difficult to compare with other painters of this discipline. I have the exceptional talent of automatic drawing and I use these sketches as basis of my work so that each painting has a unique and mysterious presence which speaks strong to the subconscious of the public. My admirers are often surprised of my versatility and my gift to express herself in more disciplines.

Who is Brajanne?



Magical surrealistic impressions of Brajanne

I was born on an Easter noon, the second of April 1961, after a full moon night, in As, a little village in Limburg, Belgium.
I am a magical surrealist. My interpretations are very personal and difficult to compare with… Continue

Brajanne

The Will




Let the sun shine
And the stars glow
I Feel the easy flow of power
The strength of the will that grows
Moments of extreme ecstasy
Empowering me with knowledge
Knowing the moments of stillness
Crawling in the sea of lost emotions
Eruptions of fresh nurturing water
Refreshing me
Clean… Continue

Your experience at Mr. Gurdjeiff's grave was obviously very profound and deeply moving. I have known others over the years who have traveled great distances hoping to share the sort of experience of which you speak, and I've always wanted to go there myself.

The work of the institute still carries on today, but by now most of the people who had personal contact with Gurdjieff are no longer living.

I first had contact with the institute in 1968 and so I was privileged to have met a number of the people who knew Gurdjieff personally and a few who worked at the Institut Gurdjieff (Paris) with Madame de Salzmann such as Paul Reynard who died in 2005 at age 78. Mr. Reynard was also a renowned artist in addition to being a teacher of the sacred dances. He was a student of Mr Gurdieff as a young man in 1947.

I was privileged to be given movements instruction by Mr. Reynard along with a number of people on a couple of very fortunate occasions when he visited Los Angeles. The Gurdjieff institute worldwide was directed by Madame de Salzmann and she was in close contact with branches of the institute throughout the world and in London, New York, San Fransisco and Los Angeles all through the years following Gurdjieff's death until her own demise in 1990.

Paul Reynard can be seen performing the sacred dances, or Movements, in the Film based on Gurdjieff's book, "Meetings With Remarkable Men". the film was directed by Peter Brook, who was a student of one of Gurdjieff's students.. The Movements performances were filmed in the late 1970's in Paris, I believe, under the supervision of Madame de Salzmann.

I realize that this rather long, drawn-out accounting of the history of the institute all sounds rather impersonal in contrast to your very emotionally heart-felt account of your own experience, but over the years, I've personally had many experiences as a result of my exposure to this teaching and those connected with it that has touched my heart and soul as well, and what you've said in so few words resonates deeply within me.

The DVD of the film, "Meetings With Remarkable Men " is available online at:

There is also a wonderful interview with Mr. Reynard on the subject of ART via this link:

I agree with your observation. It is difficult to be completely honest with oneself and to come to value and recognise genuine heart-felt sincerity. It requires real struggle. Since you live in Belgium, have you spent time at the Prieuré near Fontainebleau, France? I've never been there myself but I did go the hear Madame de Salzman speak on two occasions when she was in the US in San Fransisco and in Los Angeles, where I had lived for many years before moving to the Pacific Northwestern US where I live now.

I've looked at more of your work. I like how you've used your own face for many of your portraits in an intriguing variety of compositions.

What you said about Mister Gurdjieff being like a father to you resonates with me in a meaningful way, as I think it does with all of us around the world who his teachings and writings and ideas have touched.

I very much like your self-portrait which appears beneath "Who is Brajanne"
--It almost looks "Art Nouveau" except that it also has a certain ethereal quality to it.

I also find much of your work very compelling. I recognise one of your portraits in the series "Faces" as G.I. Gurdjieff, someone whose teaching I have studied over the years.

Take a look at my page, I've added two new works.

warm regards,

RS Yorke

Hello Brajanne,

Thank you for sharing the story of this beautiful shot you took of the swan. And I am glad that my "white swan" painting inspired you. After all, nature inspires us all and we see objects sometimes different ways or similar!

It is digitally done, or after you worked on digitally then painted it as well!

Your colors are very lively and attractive. bravo

Best wishes

Mona
