Art Gallery in Tillamook County
A Catalyst for Healing at Graceful Waves Wellness Center
Surrounding ourselves with beautiful works of art is an integral part of creating a healing environment in which we can overcome life’s difficulties and thrive. Graceful Waves Wellness Center features an art gallery regularly showing approximately 18 works of art, depending on size.
Born in Holland and inspired by spirit, our local visionary artist-in-residence, Shaukya Dekker, has passionately created art for over 20 years. Her paintings express a personal and collective process of healing and transformation. During a significant breakthrough in 2014, Shaukya gave up the brush and began painting with her hands, allowing luminous energies to come directly through her onto the canvas.
More About Shaukya Dekker
Featuring the works of Shaukya is particularly meaningful for us. Her paintings have been an important part of setting the original tone and timbre of the center—even while it was truly just a vision!
The unfolding of that vision brought a truly special collaboration in which our first piece of art was commissioned and created for and at the center. This painting, called “All of You is Welcome Here”, is an inter-dimensional representation of inclusivity in all aspects and stages of life that we experience—from the depths of suffering to the peaks of ecstasy and joy and all those spaces in between.
Take a Part of Our Vision Home With You
Our center is proud to feature some of Shaukya’s works as a permanent installation and to have made the investment in their brilliance. Hardly a day goes by without witnessing a client gazing into her works and somehow being transported into a magical realm.
There are also many of Shaukya’s paintings displayed in the center which are available for purchase. Limited edition fine art giclée prints on canvas are also available.
To find out more about Shaukya’s art at the center, inquire within for details or to arrange a special viewing time. To schedule additional appointments for our health and wellness services, contact us by phone at (503) 368-9355.
