Soul Portraits

tap into your creativity – honor your story – release your past

What is a Soul Portrait?

A Soul Portrait is just what it sounds like – a process to connect with and see the essence of who you truly ARE while honoring and letting go of all the layers of who you’ve BEEN. 

You’ve tried many methods of healing and self improvement—reading books, taking courses, individual therapy, meditation, working with specialized practitioners and naturopaths. If you’re like me, these efforts have helped you tremendously, but life’s problems have a way of circling back again and again – keeping you in a perpetual loop of worry, fear, and doubt. When that happens, it’s easy to lose faith and sink back into the familiar limiting beliefs and patterns that keep you stuck

I’VE BEEN THERE and it’s painful! After seeking a better way for decades – I finally understood that the solution to EVERYTHING rests within.

And the same is true for you!

Creating a Soul Portrait is a deeply transformative process that supports you in healing past wounds. By using tangible items that hold significant meaning in your life – things like photographs, letters, mementos, ticket stubs, fabric or other personal artifacts – you gently practice taking stock of who you’ve become and how you’ve gotten there, learning that the only way to step into real power and discover true freedom is by first really looking at who you have been.

As you begin to arrange and incorporate your personal materials into your Soul Portrait, you engage in an act of alchemy, releasing old parts of yourself, letting go of past pain and outdated identities. This energetic release is both cathartic and transformative, facilitating physical and emotional healing. The act of creating becomes a powerful ritual of self-renewal, allowing you to symbolically and energetically shed layers of the past that no longer serve you. 

At the end of this practice you will have much more than a unique piece of artwork. You’ll have a powerful representation of your lived experiences and a renewed personal lens that embodies the person you aspire to become.

Making a Soul Portrait invites you to remember that your true nature is pure loving limitless energy, and that you are capable of ANYTHING. 

I’m an artist dedicated to helping you connect with your inner wisdom and personal truths through a creative process I call Soul Portraits. I’ve been drawing and painting for decades and have been shaped by a lifetime of seeing the world visually rather than verbally. In 2019, I realized that I no longer resonated with the “traditional” path and left all formal representation to focus on sharing what I’ve learned over the years and feel most passionate about. 

Working creatively is led by a deep inner voice that resides within ALL of us. This means that it is the PROCESS – not the PRODUCT – that matters.

Let me say that again: it’s the process – not the product – that matters. You don’t need to have “artistic ability” or have done anything like this before for it to help you overcome your challenges.

This process allowed me to heal, connect to my inner wisdom and step into my power. I used it to work through childhood trauma slowly and gently at my own pace and in the privacy of my own space. My approach blends personal artifacts like letters, photos, and journal entries, inviting deep self reflection and emotional release. 

My mission is to support you in transforming past pain. Through personal growth and self-discovery, you will shed the layers that no longer serve you and come to recognize who you truly are. Together, we will share a beautiful creative experience born from the meaningful moments that represent of your life story, honoring your journey and capturing the essence of your Soul.

What Our Clients Say

Devorah is uniquely gifted at creating Soul Portraits. She spent hours getting to know who I really am and what I have been touched by. Then she did a number of preliminary sketches which included insightful images of what we talked about. When I wanted to add some tangible memorabilia to the final painting, she agreed this would make it very personal and compelling. She is amazing.

-Jim

This came during a time where I have lost so much and I am in the process of rebuilding. This project helped my transformation by reminding me who I am under all of the muck and has shown me where I’ve closed off parts of my own heart. I feel transformed by realigning my true values

It surprised me how easy this came to me. Once I had a path and a vision, everything just flowed”

-Sarah

Thank you for this beautiful awakening. My son and I did this together (but separate), and it’s something I will never forget. I got him painting and we had an emotional talk.

I was always told I’m too sensitive. That it was a bad thing. This helped me rewrite my script. I also learned creative patience. I was one who always said I don’t have a creative bone in my body. My mom did my art as I grew up and it haunted me. This was all mine!!! 

-Christina

I feel you truly captured the essence of who I am capable of being in this moment in my life.

The image shall remind me of that I will continue to evolve and in a healthy way shed parts of my past and prepare myself for the next seasons of my life. To be a better person than I am now.
