the
Journey
“Welcome to the world of JDKE.
A journey of resilience and creativity,where art, mindfulness, and words
become a space of healing and transformation.”


“The Light, Lion & Love”
“This book is not about what was lost,but about the light to be found.
A mindful journey of resilience and transformation
where silence became presence,
and presence became art.”
The Light, Lion & Love is not just a memoir—it is a celebration of the human spirit.
Born from silence, struggle, and recovery, it reveals how the darkest nights can become the cradle of light.
In these pages, Jonathan Daniel Kruger Erbstein shares the intimate journey of falling, breaking, and rising again—guided by mindfulness, art, and love.
This book is an invitation to pause, to reflect, and to discover that within every wound lies the seed of transformation. It is a story of courage, vulnerability, and the alchemy of turning pain into purpose.
More than words, it is a reminder: the Light is always within you.”

My spirit in color
“Each brushstroke carries a journey.
Each canvas holds the silence turned into movement.”
“Welcome to a Journey of Art and Mindfulness”

Light transformed into strokes
Painting isn’t just color on a canvas it’s movement, it’s rhythm, it speaks without words.”
“My art is not about escaping the world, but about arriving fully into it. Sometimes a single brushstroke says what words never could. Through these paintings I share my journey.”
The Gallery
“Every painting is a moment of presence.
Here, the journey lives in color.”
