Current Gallery: rastafarian ( piece)
Many of the paintings in Ejay Khan's Rastafarian Art Gallery were created during the four years she lived in the country ghetto of Little Bay, Westmoreland, Jamaica, married to the Rastafarian farmer, Ras Prophet, who was the model for a number of them. Although she personally does not ally herself with any one religion, believing that all are relevant and necessary at this time for the spiritual evolution and salvation of mankind, she does have a particularly strong affinity and respect for many of the teachings and livity of Rastafarianism. She also has the greatest admiration and "raspect" for Emperor Haile Selassie I, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah - Jah, Rastafari. Ejay hopes this collection of works depicting the Rastafarian culture will help the uninitiated appreciate the positive influence of Rastafarians on the world, and will provide Rastafarians with positive artwork portraying their unique and powerful culture. In these dread times, which Rastafarians and all who have eyes to see have been telling of for years, it is critical to live up. Find your center in love and peace and do whatever it takes to stay there. Do not focus on the fear, stay in love at all cost. We can prevail. It is time for the meek to inherit the earth. Surrounding yourself with postive Rastafarian art can help keep you stay focused. Giving thanks in all things is also critical to staying centered in peace. And don't forget to help out your struggling brethren and sistren. Living outside the system is best, but is always hard. It is especially hard now for the artists (painters, muscians, carvers, poets, and all who live on what they create) - help them out. Jah Bless, Ejay
