Ros Coleman is an incredibly gifted and creative psychic artist who has been kind enough to share with us the process she follows when creating a portrait of a spirit guide.With incredible skill and using her natural skills, we think you will agree her work is striking and deeply touching…

With pastel pictures, the first part of the painting tends to be a coloured background that describes spiritual aspectsrelating to the client. In this case a love of birds and nature was indicated and the light colours were being sent as waves of healing from the lady’s guides.

The outlines of this guide show a nun praying. This is intensifying the healing being sent tothe client and the guide is letting them know that she is with her when she is praying. Also that her prayers are working.

The completed picture shows a gentle, reverent spirit guide, The lady for whom she wasdrawn had sustained a very bad accident one year before, had been told on other occasions that she had a nun with her and told me that birds were her favourite things.

I work with a number of artists from the spirit world. Each has a completely different style of working and they are always happy to throw in some surprises.This keeps me feeling fascinated (what will they come up with next?) and I feel that this sense of fascination and wonder makes it easier for these spirit artiststo work with me. This was certainly the case with this particular picture.

Firstly, each part of the picture was finished, nothing else needed doing to it later. In this first part it was clear that the guide was a craftsperson who loved bright colours; loved creating things, had a treasure trove of creative ideas all flying about at once, worked methodically so as to keep on track and was celebrating with great joy the fact that my client was meeting her in this picture.At this stage, the natural elements (waves, flowers) and the very style and feel of the picture made it clear that the energies involved were creative, elemental, nature spirits. The guide was like a figurehead or orchestrator of a number of guides, each with their own particular role. In other words, a collective.

Right at the end, the guide appears. Strong, quiet, creative. The lady whose guide this is creates fabulous crystal items – dragonflies, boxes, jewellery and her mind teems with creative ideas at all times – she lives in a world of beauty and colour

Surprise 1. Some time after the guide was finished, my client (on the right) returned with her friend and business partner and her guide picture. The guide is identical to her friend (a powerful energy worker and creative) from her raven black hair to her big violet blue eyes. So spiritual guides can be people who are living. Or perhaps their spiritual energy exists as another entity on the spiritual planes, where they have a physical presence on earth whilst a spiritual aspect of them helps and guides from the spiritual planes. This picture seems to illustrate that simply being who we are has the most extraordinary power energetically.
Surprise 2. The friend/guide had brought 2 champagne flutes to Gorton for the friends to drink from. When the picture was turned upside down, the celebration bells looked just like champagne flutes. This does often happen – guide pictures, when turned sideways, upside down or looked “through” or when seen in subdued lighting may show different images, pictures or information. It has also been that a picture that shows so many colours that the guide does not look “real”, will look like a monochrome photograph of someone when scanned into a computer and reproduced in black and white.
