Heather Eck explains how she uses psychic abilities to paint individualize works. Heather engages clients in deep and meaningful ways. Her colorful canvas paintings connect by color meaning to the 7 Chakras of the body and are created from messages which she intuits from her own spirit guide about the person for whom she creates. These commissioned paintings are not only powerful messages that provide the receiver with guidance about their own spiritual areas that require healing and light, but also serve as a type of portrait of one’s spiritual energy. Many of Heather's paintings are also more loosely tied to themes about spiritual awakening and expression.
