“Awakened Creator describes me really well, because I started creating art for the first time in my life (in my 40’s) in the same period that I started to awaken!”
Today’s Awakened Creator Spotlight is on Ron van Alff, a digital artist, who explores his heartfelt expression through the merging of photography and spiritual intuition. Connect with him on Instagram/TikTok/Twitter @ronvibesart.
Here is Ron in his own words on his creative journey and what it means to be an Awakened Creator.
Tell us about your authentic creative expression. What do you love to create and why?
I love to take pictures of trees, the sky, churches, houses, flowers & lamps for example. Afterwards I look for a picture that “speaks” to me and I start editing it. Because I have been doing this extensively for a while now I have some tricks up my sleeve. But when I start I don’t know exactly what it will become. I work very intuitively. During this process I start seeing something, feeling something and it gets spiritual meaning most of the times. I tend to create lots of portals, parallel universes and dreamworlds. This process makes me lose time and relaxes me. And I get excited starting something new. That’s why I do it!
What most often gets in your way as a creator and how do you stay in alignment and flow?
Because I have several special interests, I might become too involved with other things and not create any art for a few days. It’s just something I realise and then I make myself start on a photo. After a short while the drive and the routine comes back. Creating my art goes hand in hand with my spiritual work. So meditation and reading about philosophy helps me in my creative flow as well.
If you could offer words of wisdom or support to your fellow creators, what would you say?
“Create what YOU like. Get excited about that, create every day, you’ll get better.”

Do you have the desire to align with your authentic creative expression?
If you want to feel free to create from the heart, my HeART Alignment Creative Ritual guide will show you a pathway home.
I will personally guide you (with quick video lessons) through a simple yet powerful creative ritual that will bring your heART back online so you can start creating from that space again.
