Spirit Paintings

Spirit Paintings turn ordinary lives into extraordinary fine art and transform memories into masterpieces.

Using layer upon layer of transparent glazed colour, Spirit Paintings and Portraits capture emotional moments or memories of personal objects, experiences, or beliefs. Each oil painting on canvas is a realistic depiction of subject matter that is also an investigation of the contrasting effects of light and shadow on reflective or see-through objects and figures. Whether based upon folklore, fairy tales, factual history, real or imagined people, family, ancestors, inner thoughts, beliefs or feelings, Spirit Paintings are one of a kind portraits that each tell a unique story.
