Stephen Cox Psychic Artist

Each portrait created is an original picture – it will be either a spirit guide or a loved one (living or passed on)

Through over ten years of work in this field, Stephen has drawn for hundreds of people all over the world. He prefers to draw with charcoal and pastel – the varied tones of charcoal give each drawing a loose, spontaneous feel. Spirit is not static, spirit is energy, and charcoal is a perfect tool for capturing a fleeting moment of that energy. Stephen describes how he works: “When doing a drawing, I either have the person I am reading for with me, or I focus on their photograph. I sit quietly and tune in to the person, asking my spirit guide to come close. Then I feel empowered to draw. As I do so, the face of someone develops before me. The end result is a portrait of a loved one or a guide, depending on what is needed for that person. I recommend viewing my drawings in a slightly dimmed light, and focusing on the eyes. That is when they really ‘speak’ to you.”

The name given to Stephen was "Osiris"	The Goddess This is the person that currently resides in our shop and watches over Sarah in a protective manner	Grandmother This was a portrait of a sitter's grandmother - not identified as such until the picture was shown to the sitter's mother	Spirit Guide A native American spirit guide, drawn for one of the sitters.

Iona started life (on Stephen's easel) as a native American but by the end of the drawing, Iona had appeared. Iona is the Goddess that is present in our shop an is an "improved" likeness of the portrait above.
