Artistic talent combined with life-long exploration of consciousness and spirituality has given Daniel B. Holeman an ability to depict uplifting and profound sacred imagery. His inspirational paintings have a strong impact and an uncanny affect on people. Many are deeply touched emotionally - sometimes brought to tears - and describe his paintings as the most beautiful pictures they have ever seen.

Daniel invites the viewer to dive into a deeper dimension of consciousness while viewing his paintings. The imagery stirs forgotten awareness of a place felt to be HOME - a warm, familiar and heartfelt state of mind - a welcome contrast to the day-to-day world we live in. Rather than appealing to select markets, such as "New Age" and "Spiritual", his work appeals to a good percentage of people in all categories - perhaps anyone who appreciates or longs for that heartfelt place - thus crossing race, social, gender, religious and ethnic boundaries. Through his paintings and his web work, vision and inspiration are his gifts to others.

His Web Site, is a special world to explore and enjoy - a Domain of Beauty, Insight, Transformation and Awakening. In addition to the artwork, Awaken Visions is a haven for truth seekers, consciousness explorers and all who know, don't know, or want to know what it's all about.

Some renowned visionaries speak about the Daniel's artwork:

"Daniel's paintings express a visionary world which lifts my spirit and releases tensions of this world" - Barbara Marx Hubbard Author, Founder of Global Family, President of Foundation for Co-Creation

"Daniel does marvelous and refreshing work. I appreciate his art. His paintings are very restful." - Edgar Mitchell Astronaut, Founder of Institute of Noetic Sciences

"Daniel's art aids in de-stressing; by looking at Daniel's paintings I relax and lift above worldly concerns, knowing that everything is in order." - Terry Cole Whittaker D.D.S., Best selling author, speaker and Founder of Adventures in Enlightenment

Nita Winter, a Marin City based award winning photographer, was born in 1954 in Glen Cove New York.  Nita's fascination with photography was kindled as young girl by her father with whom she spent hours in the darkroom.  Her own photographic passion began during her senior year at Clark University where she earned a degree in biology.  After graduation she was awarded a three month fellowship at the Maine Photographic Workshop.

In 1976 Nita moved to San Francisco and began to document her work fighting fires and   leading tours on Alcatraz Island while working for the National Parks Service.  In 1982 she began working for non-profit agencies photographing what has become her passion: people.  Her client list has grown to include local businesses, national and international corporations and publications, including the New York Times, SF Examiner, SF Chronicle, Marin Independent Journal, Ladies' Home Journal, Sesame and Parenting magazines.  Ms Winter has remained closely associated with community organizations and continues to dedicate her time and talent to improve the quality of life of those they represent.  Order Information: nita@nitawinter.com
