From Canvas to Consciousness: A Spiritual Awakening Through Art with Lara Luna (aka Laura Barbosa)

Join host Michael Gardner for a powerful, unfiltered conversation with visionary artist and spiritual seeker Lara Luna (Laura Barbosa).

Once a self-taught painter shipping bold, colorful originals all over the world via eBay’s BarbosaArt, Lara’s work has graced HGTV’s Battle on the Block, the pages of Kim Carlsberg’s The Art of Close Encounters, and the healing art collection at Community Medical Center in Toms River, NJ—where her paintings “Bright” and “Beautiful” bring light and comfort to patients in Oncology, Hospice, and Radiology.

But Lara’s journey has taken a profound turn. Deep spiritual awakenings, vivid angel numbers, and quantum-level realizations have transformed both her life and her art. Now she’s channeling that energy into her brand-new book Awakening by Numbers (currently being finalized in paperback) and an eco-conscious mission: saving the planet one bottle at a time through stunning upcycled bottle art (over 300 bottles rescued from landfills and counting).

In this raw and inspiring episode, Lara opens up about:

  • How angel numbers and synchronicities hijacked her reality
  • The moment she knew her art had to serve something bigger than herself
  • Turning trash into sacred objects and healing
  • What the quantum field is teaching her about creation, manifestation, and purpose
  • The next book already burning in her soul

If you’ve ever felt a spiritual stirring, questioned reality, or believed art can change the world—this episode will light you up.

Welcome to the sacred space. Welcome to the awakening.
