Laura Bruno creates custom painted and “coded” doors and canvas boards (“porta-portals”), designed to reprogram and tap into the tremendous power of patrons’ subconscious minds and emotions. This ongoing series began as a personal journey and grew to include commissioned works of art, uniquely integrated into people’s homes.
Laura has studied Runes, Sacred Geometry, Tarot, Numerology, Myth and Ancient Symbols, and she works with people to articulate and embody intentions for themselves and the larger world in the form of functional art. Each door or porta-portal features an image, quote and design side, with a mantra, prayer, poem or Psalm embedded on the back, creating a sense of moving from intention to fruition. To view these pieces and read explanations of them, please click on the links below.
Door Number 2: The Alchemy Door
Door Number 3: Daphne, aka “Tree of Life”
Door Number 4: The Four of Wands/Karuna
Door Number 5: King of Cups/Chiron
Door Number 6: Freya and Frigga
Door Number 9: Ace of Pentacles
Door Number 10: Hopi/Jewel in the Lotus
Door Number 15: The World Tree and the Norns
Door Number 16: UR ~ “Not All Who Wander Are Lost”
Door Number 17: Elen of the Ways
Door Number 18: “Peace of the Blue Irises”
Door Number 20: Oak Ash and Thorn, aka the Isis Portal
Door Number 21: The Hermit Portal
Door Number 24: The Two of Cups Equinox Portal
Door Number 25: Queen of Wands Imbolc Portal
Door Number 26: Strength with Quan Yin and Tiger
Door Number 27: Star Gate Portal
(Door Number 14 was the first porta-portal, commissioned by someone who wanted the same effects as a door without the expense of flying Laura there and keeping her “in residence” for the week it usually takes to create these portals. For more information about the ways doors appear for Laura to paint, you might enjoy “The Motherload of Doors.”)
If you are interested in commisioning either a door or a more easily mailed “porta-portal,” please email asklaurabruno @ Gmail dot com.

Amazing art Laura!
There was a time when every time I opened a door I imagined it as a gate and when I stepped through that door/gate I imagined myself entering in to a spiritual realm in a way… a place that got me closer to my spirit or source.
Seeing your art has encouraged me to do this again! 🙂
Thank you!

Dear Laura, I don;t know for sure if these youtube videos I have should be here -or with the Fairies but… I need to put them somehwere , so i choose here.
“FORGOTTEN UNDERWORLD by MAJoramo”
IOR BOCK ON BALDER’S TEMPLE by MAJoramo
I I put these for your perusal just to show how Things from other Dimensions -or thing that would take us to other Dimensions are denied us and destroyed even for the purpose of the Common Man to not find the Truth about these Worlds that are available to –if only…..
There is ,I think no people on Earth that believe more in Fairies than Finns. (Norweigians and Sweeds just a step or two behind)
It is so very obvious Christmas time with all the thousand of Xmas Cards depicting Elfs who take care of the Animals in the Barn and Take care of the Whole Farm to people who give them food, milk and every once in a while fabric for their clothing.
Those cards are adorable! 🙂

Fascinating videos! Thanks for mentioning. Yes, these things are so obvious when you look with your heart and even with your eyes — if we can just stop allowing all the smoke and mirrors to confuse them. 🙂
