  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    Linda…you not only have to look at the painting…you must also remember the words of Catharine Crowe….’A great many things have been pronounced untrue and absurd, and even impossible, by the highest authorities in the age in which they lived, which have afterwards, within a very short period, been found to be both possible and true.’ I shall be thinking of you this week…you can be sure of that!Sx

    How lovely is this painting… Love what appears to my eye the blue bridge perhaps a crossing to deeper unstanding of the soul. Great painting.

  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    Jennifer, thank you for your lovely words! This painting changes all the time and different incarnations appear. All bringing hope and understanding…Spirit works to inspire vision in all of us, we just need to be keen on accepting their enthusiasm and communicating that energy into our daily lives!Sx

    Chaotic yet alluring,, very interesting:) Awesome work!

  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    This painting is in my private collection. I don’t think I will part with it until I die. It changes so much, what you see one day is not longer there the next. Last year it hung in a very large mansion. Close to the entrance, people walking in and out. When I met them one evening, they all conveyed their dismay, at how the painting constantly changed. It’s interesting Lynn because I’ve never associated it with chaos…but I will think about it, and get back to you! I’m glad you liked it nevertheless!S

    I see a blue bridge that carries others to another dimension. This piece has great depth with a myriad of imagery to unveil the spirits that communicate with the help of your guides. The tall black figures can signal danger, but you seem to be unafraid of encountering the spiritual dimension that brings hope and peace for those like you who are inspired with a clear vision to see the most profound realms not available to consciousness. I can see your life has been deeply enriched that helps you deal with the adversity you cope with in your life.

  • Sophie Shapiro

    Julie your comments are very interesting. I feel very fortunate in that I really am not afraid of my Spirit Guides. If there is something that may disturb me while I’m painting in a trance, I just tell them and it leaves. I really trust in the process. I have been told that my paintings are healing and many people from around the world have expressed those feelings. My Spirit Guides want to bring comfort in sorrow, misfortune, or trouble; alleviation distress or discomfort – to people who are suffering.Sx

    This is extraordinary on many levels. Your spirit shines through enhancing the power of your masterful imagery and beyond. You have been chosen by mediums to guide others as an exceptional human being. I noticed that I already commented on this exceptional piece. It is amazing that your outstanding artwork touches me so deeply on so many levels;the bride takes me to many places and traveling with you is always enlightening
    opening up new vistas and portals to other worlds.

  • Julie Marks

    Julie Marks

    Sophie, sorry for the typo. The bridge, not the bride takes me….. :))

  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    The messages are clear to those who are ready to accept the simplicity and love that these paintings bring. There are blessings, delights and joy within them. The patterns and lights are Spiritually illuminating and open the doors of understanding. Thank you for all your comments Julie I appreciate them greatly! I really do!Sx

    goodness there is so much to see here Sophie, the soul wonders over the dimensional bridge, and every one is oblivious to it as they walk underneath and continue with their lives,,beautiful :O)

  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    I will quote the words of Ramadahn through the mediumship of Ursula Roberts….Value these years, and use them to polish the coin of your honesty, to strengthen the wings of your love, so that you may be prepared in these few short seasons of your earthly life for that which is still to come, so that glory upon glory, light upon light, truth upon truth, may unveil itself before the vision which has been purified and cleansed by the honest seeking after truth, the deep inward understanding of the self, whilst you are here in the ways of the earthly experience.

    This artwork takes me to many dimensions, different times in the history of our planet, like watching time merging with itself all happening at the same moment! Breathtaking art Sophie!!!!!

  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    Kathie that is such a wonderful description of this painting! It changes all the time. You are right when you say it’s like the history of our planet. That’s why is changes so much! Fantastic Kathie…that really is the reason!Sx

    It’s amazing how everybody sees so many things and yet practically all different. I guess we all live in our own realities which from time to time intersect or touch one another. And then we simply say: WOW!
    And this is exactly all I can say, my friend: WOW!

    Touched.

  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    Vasile, in Ancient or tribal cultures the teaching of the Soul were passed down by word of mouth from one generation to another. That is why traditional literature often has many levels of meaning, which is reflected by complex accretions of commentary. That is why I feel honoured that you have been touched by this painting which is really very beautiful and full of intuitive instinct. Thank you!Sx

    The bridge of faith.. once we dare to take another step while the bridge seems to disappear we have reached understanding. To me it looks as if there is a person deciding on stepping onto the bridge or not.. and above this person is a Spirit waiting to see what this person wil decide..
    Haven’t seen this painting before Sophie.. that it shows up for me to see it now gives reason to think. xx

  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    Liesbeth, I don’t know how you missed this one! It’s one of my favourite but it’s good to see that the saying….It’s never too late.... applies to you as well…I hope you are well and enjoying your week!Thinking of you!Sx
