Dolores Baker
"Art to me is a multi-hued field of energy that can be drawn upon by anyone desiring a connection with it. Everything in the universe is made up of the same energy which is expressed in as many ways as there are beings, thoughts and emotions. Each of us must find our own way to express this energy in our world."
Using bold, energetic colors, Dolores captures the spiritual essence of the subjects in her paintings. "Each subject is unique and has its own special energy pattern." Whether she is creating a pet portrait, wildlife painting or healing art, Dolores expresses that energy in her pieces. After an extensive personal meditative retreat in 2009, Dolores had a vision of her artwork generating healing energy to all who viewed it. She began a series of paintings she calls "Healing Art." These paintings are created as a meditation around special spiritual texts. Each painting has a translation of the text (as some are in Sanskrit and other languages). Dolores invites you to take a couple of deep breaths and relax as you view the paintings and allow the healing energy to be absorbed into your energy field.

Dolores Baker has had several careers. She began her working life as a Certified Public Accountant for many years but found she needed a more creative outlet so began studying art and interior design. She also became a Certified Hypnotherapist and eventually obtained both a Master’s degree and a Ph. D. in Counseling Psychology, working as a therapist for several years while also creating art. All these careers give her a wide field of experiences to draw upon for her art. Dolores now lives in the Rocky Mountains between Cheyenne and Laramie, Wyoming. She and her husband, Steve, enjoy time with their llamas and dogs as well as the wildlife in the area around them. These animals are a great source of inspiration for her paintings. Dolores has been painting for over 20 years in oil, watercolor and acrylic mediums. “My favorite medium at this point is acrylic because of its versatility and vivid colors.” Dolores and her husband Steve opened Mago Healing Arts in Cheyenne, WY in 2009 to provide alternative healing to the community. In addition to providing energy healing to clients, Dolores’s art work is displayed and sold at the center and provides a healing environment.
