As more and more alternative and spiritual healings are being studied and documented they are finding that all forms of upliftment heals the body, mind and spirit. Angelic art falls within this category by uplifting the spirit. I do not claim Angel paintings create physical healings. Angel paintings soothe the emotions and create a more peaceful atmosphere helping today's society deal with the stressful world we now find ourselves in on a day to day basis.

Angel paintings are unique. They are a form of healing art. Angelic art uplifts, motivates, comforts, soothes and inspires. Each painting holds it's own inspirational energy and you do not have to be a " Believer" for this to work. These paintings work on a deep emotional level, clearing, releasing and comforting the emotions and melting the stress of the day away. Inspiring within each individual that gazes upon them their own God like image and this is how the healing takes place. A place of beauty and perfection is remembered by the Soul." Divine energy is at work assisting alternative and spiritual healing through Angel therapy in the form of fine art.

My Angel paintings for example are personal, whether it be in one of my collection series or for a specific individual or relationship or group. Upon completion of each painting, I know that it is indeed meant for someone and their heart and soul will instantly know and respond to the Angel and the energy before them in the painting. My Angel art is a gift, given to and through my talent by Divine Angels guidance instructed to them by a much Higher Source. The Angels oversee and instruct every brushstroke and detail of paint color and every brushstroke within each painting ... they truly know "Who" the painting is for and the message it portrays. You can read more about how the paintings are created on my Sharae's Studio page. These paintings are truly a "Living" source of Divine Energy. I have witnessed some pretty amazing emotional releasements, and reactions when people have gazed upon them and truly responded with their soul !

Each day, more and more documented proof is coming through from the medical fields proving that Art and Music are truly a recognized healing tool to be used by everyone. Whether it be in participation, gazing upon or listening ... Art heals. This has always been known in the Alternative and Holistic medicines, but now is being used more and more in the traditional medicines opening up a whole new train of thought causing many, many positive results benefiting all. I look forward to it becoming an everyday occurrence ... just as a standard prescription is used.

'Healing With The Angels', by Doreen Virtue who also authored Angel Therapy, " teaches esoteric and practical methods that help you work with your Angels in healing your relationship, family and body issues." Angel or Angelic art is an extension of this therapy.

Indigo and Crystal Children and the elderly respond to the Angel Paintings with a knowingness of love and illumination that comes from within them. Sometimes the reactions have been as though they are recognizing an old friend.

I am a level 2 Reiki Practioner and I incorporate this energy into my paintings. Reiki is Japanese for Universal life - force or Spirtually -Guided Energy. Rei, Univeral all-energy compassing and all - knowing, and Ki, life - force energy, the same as Chi in Chinese. This is the energy that binds all living things together in unlimited amounts. With the guidance and wisdom of the Universe, this is the most powerful form of energy healing.

I find the Angels like working with this gentle ever flowing energy and some Reiki practioners that do hands on Reiki healing treatments actually see the Angels working with them in their treatment sessions.

Angels are so much more than we realize. I have found them to be a great source of information. They have a wonderful sense of humor and are always there when I need them consciously or unconsciously.I can almost hear the chuckling in the background as I sit here writing. I am an Angel artist not a writer, but as usual it seems the Angels have a different agenda so I might as well go along with it. They have gotten me out of my comfort zone more than once. They are my pep rally, they are my comfort through everything and my mentors and they never steer me away from my chosen path ? my destiny, I am sure of it.

The Angels just expand it and broaden it more than I could ever imagine when I started this quest so many years ago of helping and uplifting humanity with the love and the message of such definite light there can be no mistaking where the source of this energy comes from? The Divine.

I only hope that people respond with their hearts in today's times as there is so much love and compassion and healing just waiting for all. Let down the barriers and just accept the love that is so freely given and the help, healing and assistance that is just there for the asking. Every moment of everyday we are not alone, we don't have to carry the burden that was never ours to carry. Release the pain, release the baggage that you carry to the Angels? just think it and it is done. It is that simple. The healing begins.

If you want proof, ask for the proof it will be given this I can and will assure you. When you truly act and react from the heart your lives will blossom with more than you could ever imagine ? more understanding of this world will encompass you. It is all right there ? and it can be something so simple as a gentle whisper or the viewing of Angelic art that will confirm in your heart and knowingness ? Angels are so much more than messengers.
