Commission a Shamanic Portrait

Commission a Shamanic Portrait

K325 While Love Slept No. 2- Stage 7 Final-2

Watercolor & Pastel Shamanic Portrait
Size: 21″ x 29″

Each of us has helping and supportive shamanic energies around us all the time, in the form of animal spirit helpers and other archetypes that may express themselves in images such as flowers, abstract symbols, features of seasonal landscapes, weather phenomena, and many more. The specific content of your portrait is based upon Scarlet’s shamanic scan of your energy field at the time the portrait is commissioned, and upon the guidance she receives in the shamanic journey she then undertakes on your behalf.

Oil on Linen Shamanic Portrait Size: 44 x 80”

Oil on Linen Shamanic Portrait
Size: 44 x 80”

Participating in the process of your scan, hearing the guidance offered in your journey, and then contemplating the completed portrait are all vital parts of the shamanic healing process that begins the moment you schedule your initial exploratory appointment for your commission.You should be aware that, unlike traditional portraiture, you’re not commissioning an image that you and the artist have discussed and imagined prior to beginning the portrait process. You’re commissioning a shaman’s vision of yourself and your shamanic energy field at a particular time in your life, and the shaman must be true to that vision in the creation of the painting. Prepare to be surprised and delighted at the result! When commissioning a shamanic portrait, you’ll also receive a 1 oz. pouch of my personally gathered and mixed herbs for shamanic offerings, which contains desert sage gathered in Nevada, Native American tobacco and eastern white cedar gathered in Maine’s coastal forest (while supplies last).

The entire process (from your initial commission interview with Scarlet to receipt of the completed portrait) may take from six weeks to several months, depending upon how many portraits are scheduled for the year.
