Energy Portraits
Portraiture is an art form often reserved for photographers and realists, but I found myself drawn to the process even as an abstract painter. I was very interested in portraiture as a healing modality. So much of a portrait is the power of being witnessed, and I thought if I used my skills as a sacred space holder and energy healer, perhaps I could paint people as they deeply are through the art of abstraction. Their essence. Perhaps even their soul. And so, over time I developed a very sacred and healing process through which I supported my clients intuitive energy healing with a painting that processes, captures, and expresses what is going on in your body physically, spiritually, and energetically.​
​
As this is an organic and intuitive process, I encourage you to wait until the day of your session to decide what we will work with. Take time to be still, to listen, and allow your body to answer the inquiry of what process might serve your highest good and healing on that particular day. I find as both an artist and a healer, that if I have too rigid an agenda or idea of what I'm going to "do" I lose some of the magic of surrendering into the process itself. As a client, this is a good mindset, too!

I begin by placing my hands on your feet, tapping into your system and connecting to the part of you that you wish to have me work with. If it is a virtual session, we will be on the phone and I begin with a prayer and use Usui Reiki to connect for distance energy work.
​
From there, I begin painting what comes through, I choose colors and brush strokes based on the quality of the energy I sense in your body. As the process unfolds, layers of paint and transformation occur both on the canvas and in your body. I will come back to you, focusing on your body, perhaps holding your head or touching your heart, to receive guidance on what to paint next. I check in with you verbally and ask that you share whatever comes up for you. It is a very safe and gentle process, but at times it can increase in intensity!
As the painting unfolds, you lay with your eyes closed. You are invited to move or dance or sing if you wish. Many people are moved to tears by the power of hearing the strokes and sounds of my hands quickly working on the canvas.

Wear comfortable clothing that you don't mind possibly getting paint on!
