UNDERSTANDING EVIDENTIAL SPIRIT PORTRAIT ART

Picture
Spirit Portrait Art is often referred to as Spirit Art.  However Spirit Art is a term that is used very loosely and encompasses a broad range of Psychic & other forms of etheric art.

SPIRIT PORTRAIT ART OR SPIRIT PORTRAITURE on the other hand is a very specific and highly advanced form of evidential Mediumship

It is the creation of an artistically drawn, painted or sculpted tangible portrait of a departed loved one through mediumistic means and artistic ability.

The image is obtained solely from the influences of spirit on the medium's senses.  No Photographs, descriptions or prior knowledge of the departed are allowed otherwise  evidence of continued presence of the spirit world would be tainted and invalidated.
The medium must obtain the images, and more importantly, capture the essence of the person on the other side through their sincere blending and communication with spirits.  

​This form of Mediumship has been deemed by the finest mediums in the world to be the greatest form of true Evidential Mediumship and provides those receiving  the reading with hard, tangible evidence of their loved one's presence.

​"The process of creating Spirit Portraits can produce profoundly intimate connections with Spirit and when done with reverence and integrity, the tangibility of the evidence can be transformative for the grief-stricken.  

Clients will often say that I have drawn their loved ones  back to life but really,  through my service to Spirit and in teaching what I fondly term their 'Pathways to Peace' - I am the one who has been drawn back to life". 
Joe has known the presence of spirit all his life and although he didn't realize it at the time he drew one of his very first recognizable Spirit Drawings at the tender age of 5 years. 

​Life has its way of tossing us in many different directions and his road to becoming the successful medium and artist he is today took many turns before he finally  answered the spiritual call to Mediumship Healing.

The road to success has not been without it's struggles but Joe's constant pursuit of truth and integrity has earned him the reputation of being a driving force in bringing greater understanding and and authenticity to Spirit Portraiture and he has become one of the most accomplished and sought-after Evidential Mediums and Spirit Artists in the world today.

​When Joe began his journey into Mediumship there were few practicing Spirit Artists who could offer sound  guidance, support or expertise needed for developing as a Spirit Portrait Artist
Today there is growing interest among many mediums who wish to expand their repertoire to include this highly advanced form of evidential mediumship in their healing work, but sadly, there are still very few qualified instructors or well-grounded programs dedicated to this specialized discipline that can provide the prospective Spirit Portrait Artist with the tools and expert guidance needed to hone their talents and realize their potential as spirit artists of integrity.
​
Joe has carefully crafted this expansive and much asked for training program so that he can pass on the very best of what he's learned to all of you who have been searching for trustworthy and comprehensive instruction so that you too can bring your healing gifts to greater numbers of the struggling and the grieving.
A MESSAGE FROM JOE
Picture
“Early on in my mediumship career, there were very few mediums experienced or knowledgeable enough about Spirit Portrait Artistry to offer guidance or instruction about Evidential Spirit Portraiture. There were even fewer trustworthy resources available to which I could turn to help me understand and unfold my gifts as a budding Spirit Artist. 

It has been through much trial and error and rigorously-honest self-assessment that I have come to understand what works and what doesn't.  What is authentic Spirit Portraiture and what isn't. 


My hope is that by sharing all that I have learned you will not only gain valuable insights from my decades long road to success but that you might also avoid some of the difficult, unproductive and sometimes painful pitfalls that I experienced along the way. 

I am so excited to share this very special journey with you and to be able to help guide you as you navigate the intriguing and rewarding world of Evidential Spirit Portraiture.
If you do this truthfully and with integrity and reverence, you will not only be able to bring meaningful & long-lasting healing to your clients, you will discover new and deeply intimate connections with spirit and levels of personal healing for yourself that you did not know were even possible.

Over time, as your 
body of work becomes more evidential so too will your reputation become more solid and more trusted"

 WHY IS THIS CALLED "FOUNDATION" OF EVIDENTIAL SPIRIT PORTRAIT ART?
When I was a builder developer there were some basic procedures to follow to make sure a project went smoothly, would stand the test of time and allow for variations and improvements over the longevity of the structure.
After surveying and assessing all of the basic fundamentals of a project, we would first excavate any unnecessary or hazardous materials from the foundation.  Solid materials would then be placed firmly and on-level in order to create the most stable and balanced base for successful and long lasting structure.
​

This program’s approach is much the same and has been thoughtfully designed to provide you with all of the materials needed for building a solid foundation upon which you can continue to hone your skills and develop a sound practice of Evidential Spirit Portrait Art.
​IS THERE A COURSE OUTLINE?
Our course schedule provides a general overview of the topics that we'll be covering.  Self-study Materials will be made available each week.  In addition we will have weekly Live Online Sessions with Joe.

**Live Sessions will alternate weekly.  One week will be a Review / Lecture with Q&A related to your Study Materials.  The following week will be a Live Online Practice Circle.
