For those who live in longing to find that mystery, to enter that secret place, there can be many avenues of enquiry in order to pierce the veils and draw them all asunder in order to reach that still, silent place within. The truth is all important and the capacity to know oneself an essential requirement. How to do this when a mind so powerful and clever seeks to elude the searcher’s efforts? It is simply not possible to purify one’s character without some help from other mortals; someone who can be trusted to pierce with love the qualities uniquely blended in each searching, wounded soul. Even one who sees a little better, who can reflect a different facet to integrate and grow within, can help immensely as a mirror to aid this subtle journey towards the truth, towards the soul. 

A portrait, drawn or painted deeply can reveal so many things – a material reflection which, through the artists’ capacity to enter the rich, inner, unconscious world, can convey an image to shock or thrill us, making inroads to other realms. We may see portrayed before us an unknown person, a distant memory we once knew, or it may simply seem outrageous that this could form from the artist’s brush or pencil when we sat before her, enchanted by the chance, the hope to be seen. Who knows what will reveal itself – who knows what can be revealed? Perhaps a merging will take place, a transmission from heart to heart, leading the sitter through the doorway which leads to transformation. Certainly there will be an experience for artist and sitter as together they enter the unknown.
