Satin Canvas has a slight sheen to its surface, making it subtle and soft. It is a preference for those who prefer images with a less contrasty appearance. I like satin over glossy because it has a more artsy look and feel.
MUSEUM QUALITY CANVAS PRINT
Canvas: We use Urth canvas, the world’s first solvent canvas with archival certification by the Fine Art Trade Guild. Manufactured by the leading canvas supplier of award-winning digital inkjet canvas, Breathing Color® uses breakthrough technology of agent-free Fluorescent Whitening and Chromata white to create a canvas free of optical brighteners while still producing canvas prints with bright whites and true vivid colors that will not fade or yellow over time. With OBA-free Urth canvas, your print can hang in direct sunlight and remain fade-resistant and as beautiful as the day it was printed. The canvas has a built-in coating, which makes it moisture and abrasion-resistant, with UV protection. The canvas is durable enough to withstand cleaning by taking a damp cloth to the surface to remove dust.
Inks: We use UltraChrome GS3 HD inks, which have a wide & rich color gamut range. The inks are sprayed upon canvas, hence the “giclee application,” with extreme detail and vibrancy, thus creating a stunningly sharp image. Tested by Wilhelm Research, these lightfast, archival inks are designed to last 100+ years.
Wood: The wood used to create the stretcher bars for your print is made from poplar trees, which are extremely strong and stable.

Source Material
The wisdom, after passing from lip to ear for several thousand years before fictitiously being originally written as "The Kybalion," then lost over the centuries, "The Kybalion" was essentially rewritten in 1908 by an American new-thought and occultist author named William Walker Atkinson, penned as Three Initiates. The principles described are attributed to Hermes Trismegistus, the mythical reincarnation of the ancient Egyptian god Thoth, venerated as three times greater than the Greek god Hermes, contemporary of Abraham, founder of astrology, and discoverer of alchemy (the psychological art of turning thoughts and emotions into spiritual gold).
Just as the word "occult" accurately means hidden, referring to esoteric spiritual knowledge, so to does the word "hermetic" mean hidden, referring to the protective containment of such higher wisdom from persecution, abuse, and dogma. "The lips of wisdom are closed except to the ears of understanding." Likewise, "When the ears of the student are ready to hear, then cometh the lips to fill them with wisdom" The Kybalion. These principles are the master keys to unlocking the Universe's secrets and many occult teachings.
These principles were first written down by the scribes of Alexander when the Greeks conquered Egypt in 332 BCE. Over a thousand years later, those writings resurfaced in the late Medieval and early Renaissance periods throughout Europe and the Middle East. They became the source material of gnostic works called "The Corpus Hermeticum" and "The Emerald Tablet of Hermes, " which, though more poetically abstract, were said to have inspired the creation of "The Kybalion.
1- The Principle of Mentalism
The All is Mind; The Universe is Mental.
Everything Begins in the Mind
The Universe is mental, meaning all of reality exists within a higher consciousness/the mind of God called The All (God, Source).
Just as writers create characters and worlds in their imagination, we are expressions of Source Consciousness, connected to everything and everyone through God.
You Are Both the Creator and the Character
Imagine you are the main character in a "choose your own adventure" story.
Your soul is experiencing life within the infinite mind of The All, shaping your reality through your thoughts and perceptions.
We Are Spiritual Beings Having a Human Experience
The Universe is not just physical; it is conscious energy.
Everything that exists is part of one higher mind—which we are all unique expressions of.
Your Thoughts Shape Your Reality
Thoughts and emotions create one another, and together, both fuel actions, which lead to our experiences.
To change your reality, you must first change your thoughts and emotions.
Self-awareness helps you understand your subconscious fears, desires, and motivations, allowing you to create the life you want.
Three Levels of the Mind
Conscious Mind – Your everyday awareness and logical thinking.
Subconscious Mind – The hidden part of your mind that holds deep beliefs, habits, and emotions.
Superconscious Mind – The higher intelligence that connects all things (also called the Collective Unconscious).
These three parts work together to bridge your individual self (microcosm) with the universal mind (macrocosm).
Science Confirms Spiritual Truths
Quantum physics supports these ideas:
The Observer Effect shows that reality shifts based on our focus.
The Double Slit Experiment suggests that the Universe responds to consciousness.
Physical matter is actually energy and thought, appearing solid only when observed.
Avoiding Extreme Views
Some may say, "I am God," believing they control everything.
Others may say, "Life is just a meaningless simulation."
The truth lies in between: We are all expressions of God, co-creating reality within a conscious, intelligent universe.
How to Shape Your Life
Your external world is a reflection of your inner world.
To manifest your desires:
Remove ego-based distortions (fears and limiting beliefs).
Align your thoughts with higher truth and wisdom.
Meditate to connect with your subconscious and The All.
Balance intuition and logic to gain a deeper understanding.
Daily Practices for Mastery
Meditation helps unlock your subconscious and access higher wisdom.
The subconscious mind determines reality based on your expectations and beliefs.
Though God/The All is beyond human understanding, we can tap into its intelligence through deep self-exploration.
You Are Always Manifesting
Whether you know it or not, you are constantly creating your reality.
Shadow work (exploring hidden fears/emotions) helps you consciously shape your experiences instead of reacting unconsciously.
The more control you have over your mind, the more control you have over your life.
Final Thought
The Universe is Mental. Everything begins with thoughts and emotions, from personal experiences to our collective reality. By understanding this, you can take control of your mind and co-create a better world for yourself and for all.
