“Banco-Sumi Master”
by JoLu Amaringo
Size: 135x100 cm
Technique: Oil on canvas
Year: 2020
Brief description of the work:
In this visionary work, on the right side you see a Banco-Sumi Master, a great shaman master and man of esoteric knowledge who can transform his physical body into pure spirit. He wears a robe of fire. To earn this honor you must rigorously follow a diet to learn from sublime masters and win allied spirits: Yanapuma or black jaguar, bears, owls, jaguar, pink dolphins and the eelmama (mother of the brava cocha, which is a wild and mystical lake where few people dare to venture). He sings blanket payariri, a reserved icarus. He says "Manti payariri, ninangu-nacaya", which means "Mantle of fire, strong as my medicine".
The magnificent pink dolphins (sublime spirits of the water) form a vault around the Banco-Sumi, whose electromagnetic auras sustain life; the air, the storm and the wind dominate.
This is also an Inca vision, with those who drink ayahuasca dressed like the Incas, we can see an Inca couple on the right side of the work. The man is called Yacoshun-go, and the woman Nukno-pachac, "sweet land." They come from a city called Great Saara, which was submerged thousands of years ago.
In the central part of the work we can see the Mother of the Chacruna. The chacruna induces colorful visions, while the ayahuasca liana promotes understanding. If you drink pure ayahuasca - the liana without chacruna, maybe a little mapacho tobacco - your visions are only in black and white.
Below we see the jaguar with energy that is being guided by the mother chacruna, this feline is magical and full of esoteric powers. This feline transforms into the king of the spirit world. On the left side, a shaman is seen surrounded by elemental fire, who teaches the esoteric mysteries of charms. And the eyes that emanate above his head allow him to look through them at the spaces of the grid and see other worlds. We also see electric eels, which vegetalistas invoke because the electromagnetic waves of this animal sensitize them to perceive pulsations in their patients.

“The Flight of the Hummingbirds”

Title: Magic Plants
Size: 120x90 centimeters.
Technique: Acrylic on canvas.
Year: 2023
Work description :
In this visionary work of art, you can see the two plants necessary to prepare the ayahuasca brew. A snake emerges from the ayahuasca vine, surrounded by fuchsia flowers. There is also another snake, the chacruna snake, green in color with its luminous leaves. Radiation comes out of his mouth. The chacruna snake penetrates the ayahuasca snake, producing the visionary effect of these two magical plants.
In the central part we see the Ayahuasca ceremony where the master and his disciples are covered by rainbow colored radiation emanating from the ayahuasca and chacruna plants. The combined effect of these plants is esoteric: due to their supernatural properties, psychic bodies are created that the eyes have never perceived before, so that one is overwhelmed by this strange new dimension. This world penetrates the top of the head so that the aura stimulates a gland between the eyebrows and activates the third eye.
On the lower left side we see a great queen. Her name is Mariquita Toé. She is a very knowledgeable doctor, and on the right side of her is the legendary fairy Quetfael, who knows paranormal medicine and beauty.
In the upper right part we see the great sylph Resfenel, the guardian of several constellations. We see him here surrounded by brilliant sapphires that illuminate his clothing. This being has the rank of pythonic satrap, and always takes care of the ayahuasca plant. The butterflies that we see are in charge of notifying the sylph when someone cuts a piece of this plant without first making an offering. If the offering is made, he listens to the prayers: when ayahuasca is ingested it gives positive effects.
The palace in the upper left is where the shamans learn to heal. Ayahuasca reveals its deepest secrets when the visionary dizziness is strongest. Here he shows that human beings need to create a balance between their good and bad sides.
The lower right golden palace is the sanctuary of dignity and peace where you learn to show justice in your actions and attitudes, and to light your heart with compassion, truth and humility. Here you learn to express in thoughts, feelings and words that "I am" and "I exist". If a person thinks or says, "I am nothing and I have nothing," she is extinguishing his spiritual strength and is doomed to failure. It is important to think inspired thoughts and say empowering words about yourself and others, rather than complain about the negative aspects of a person, as we all embody both positive and negative qualities.
The steps that we see in the lower left part lead to the underwater kingdom where mermaids, mermen, pucabufeos and the yacuruna reside.
We can also see the huarmi murayas, who are like mermaids, dressed in the scale armor of the celestial fish that teach the shamans the art of alchemical healing.

Title: Pihuichos
Size: 80 x 60 centimeters
Technique: Acrylic on canvas
Year: 2021
Work description:
The Pihuichos give a lot of joy to the home. They are birds with which you will feel accompanied at all times by their song and incessant chattering and their colorful plumage will surely transmit good vibrations to you. In addition, the Pihuicho is a bird that belongs to the parrot family, which gives it this friendly and sociable touch. Like all birds, the symbolism of freedom. Never lose sight of that ability to fly, that freedom that you have or that you lack but that you can make use of at any time.
Watching with Pihuichos also speaks of optimism and positivity. If it is because you have it or because you need it, it is up to you to discover it based on the emotions that it transmits to you.

Ayahuasca Visions Painting by JoLu Amaringo. Title: Medical Vapor. Acrylic on canvas. Year: 2021
Work description:
In this visionary work of art we see a large jar, it is called mahuete, where inside it there are three students who are learning to be master healers, these are called onayas. Inside this jar they learn the magical songs - icaros since many songs are filed and stored inside this jar. As with all sound, the things we say do not fade away, but are immediately transmitted elsewhere.
To the left of the work are the huarmi murayas who, like sirens, have golden hair. They are tending pink and white flowers for use in alchemical healing.
Guarding the entrance to the underwater kingdom are the red bufeo and the mermaids, the underwater guides of the onayas.
Behind them is a magnificent city protected by sirens with magical nets that prevent the passage of spells.
In the upper left part grows toé with its pink flower, sometimes added to ayahuasca to intensify visions. A piece of flower mixed with your ayahuasca brew can allow you to see a person clearly.
