Akiane Kramarik’s paintings have sold for up to $1 million. She has been a guest of the Oprah Winfrey Show, CNN, and Good Morning America. Her two bestselling books are “Akiane: Her Life, Her Art, Her Poetry” and “My Dream Is Bigger Than I - Memories of Tomorrow”. Although she has quite an impressive resume under her belt, you might be surprised to learn she’s still a child.

Akiane has been drawing since age four, painting since age six, and writing poetry since age seven. She has been featured in the United States, Canada, Singapore and England, and she is a member of both the Kids’ Hall of Fame and the World Council for Gifted and Talented Children.

What makes Akiane different from other children? How did she get started? She says the difference is visions from God. She wasn’t born into a religious family, but as a small child, these “visions from God” began appearing in her mind. At first, she told no one. Instead, she drew what she saw.

Some people claim to see visions, but Akiane takes it one step further. She believes she actually lives them as if she’s able to be in two places at once. She is conscious in both places. Akiane told her mother this was why she decided to paint “Eternity”. The feeling of being in two places is so realistic that she calls it “shared self”.

Akiane’s inspiration comes from all around her. Touching an animal’s fur, smelling a flower, seeing the world in a certain light, or even just imagining these things gives her the inspiration to paint or write. When she paints, she does so as if she’s standing next to that animal or flower. The texture comes through her paintbrush because it’s already in her head.

Stop and smell the roses. It’s a bit clich, but it’s what Akiane does each and every day. She sees beauty all around her, so she uses her talents of art and poetry to show that beauty to others. She simply polishes what she sees, and she believes anyone can learn to do it whether it be art, writing, or even music.

Each of Akiane’s paintings has unique meaning, and there was a reason she painted each one. “Hand of Destiny”, for example, is the image of a left hand grasping destiny and a right hand moving helplessly. We need to choose our destiny. “The Quantum World” is just a microscopic piece of Akiane’s world, but it shows the many dimensions of her world.

To Akiane, every color has meaning. White means truth, pink means trust, and black means suffering. Each stroke of each painting, and each word of each poem carries deep meaning beyond what many of us have ever thought. Akiane encourages the world around her to see beyond the obvious and find the hidden beauty within.
