Lightwolf’s Spiritpainting™ method hinges upon co-creativity, spontaneity and symbology that go way beyond ‘Rorschach inkblots’. The majesty and mysterious wonder of Nature’s displays are represented; from the fractal veins of a leaf to an awesome setting sun.

Spiritpainting™ is a versatile art form. Enhanced by a meditative state, Lightwolf applies water based paint to paper and folds it and asks for guidance. Each creation is a surprise and open to individual interpretation. They are not retouched after the folding thus the painter cannot control the outcome. Lightwolf’s method enables the painter to bypass the will of the ego which allows the Spirit to shine through and to be transferred to the canvas or paper. People have reported that non-coincidental symbolic images are revealed that have meaning for the person that the painting is intended.

Lightwolf gives training workshops and exhibits paintings in the method, simply termed ‘Spiritpainting™’.

Warning: Symbols that are revealed to the viewer may be mystifying. SpiritpaintingTM images may be inspirational. They may cause the viewer to access unconscious awareness, thereby causing an integrative healing of the physical, emotional and mental aspects through the spiritual.

Spiritpainting™ is done while meditating with the intention of healing and for ‘the good of all concerned.’ The messages then are revealed by the colours, symbols and their positioning in relation to each other.
