OM About the Artist: Ann Zeleny began her career as an artist sculpting architectural ornament, exploring historical motifs like the green man and the cornucopia. While she still works in her original field, more than a decade ago her focus shifted to creating original sculptures that utilize these archetypal forms to express her themes. A multi-media artist, she is also a musician, fiber crafts artist, and designer/creator of edible sculpture. Her thoughts: “I’m a sucker for nature-inspired ornament, pure geometry, and pure color… I believe that provoking a viewer to experience beauty is reason enough for a thing to exist. So, aside from any dynamic tension a piece might require, I relentlessly work to refine a flowing harmony of lines, shapes, and colors.” Learn more about Ann Zeleny at www.adzarts.com and at www.sacredsource.com.

It sounds like an idyllic story from the past. And it is. But it is also a true story of today, at least for the artisans of Sacred Source. When you select a sacred image from us, we hope it brings to you the blessings of peace, well-being, good fortune, and joy. Every person deserves a little piece of beauty to soothe the soul. Every living space needs a spiritual heart, a sacred center that defines the home as an oasis of calm and harmony, relief from the constant stresses of the outside world. This is what we wish for you. Through all these years, we have remained a small company committed to improving the lives of traditional handcraft artisans, while preserving their culture and the environment, and encouraging spiritual awareness around the world. With your support, we continue our mission. Blessings and Namaste, Liana and Pete Kowalzik and all of us at Sacred Source The Sacred Source Story In 1978, while serving with Mother Teresa, Freeman Allan came up with the idea of importing clay statues to the United States to benefit the poor traditional artisans he met there. He became friends with a Hindu couple, who offered to help organize the India/U.S. partnership, and so JBL began. Originally, they sold a small set of Hindu and Buddhist “Murtis” or statues. The very first ads ran in Hinduism Today magazine. In response to customer demand for western images such as Lilith and Willendorf, they launched the JBL Statues catalog, one of the pioneers in building awareness of sacred images in the U.S. You may still see JBL Statues referenced in many books, articles and websites. The name was changed to Sacred Source to more closely reflect our purpose. Liana and Pete Kowalzik bought the business in 2001 when Freeman was ready to retire. After 30 years, we remain true to the original missions: supporting our cooperative of handcraft artisan families; offering a large selection of sacred images made with Ganges River clay content; and facilitating personal spiritual growth. 22 Liana and Peter Kowalzik Your Spiritual Statue’s Story We develop the design for your devotional image to reflect the intentions of the artist, whether it was created 300,000 years ago or today. Our master artisans sculpt the image prototype, then mold small batches of statues by hand in durable, environmentally friendly materials. Your statue is lovingly finished for lasting beauty, then carefully packed for its long ocean voyage to America. When you call the Gaia Center, we strive for excellent customer service and ship your order promptly. We know you are waiting with anticipation for the arrival of your new spiritual art piece.
