Devorah Hake Brinckerhoff is a visionary artist and the creator of Soul Portraits, an immersive art experience that empowers individuals to reconnect with their deepest selves. With over 30 years as a professional artist, Devorah combines personal artifacts—such as letters, photographs, and meaningful objects—into unique, reflective pieces that invite self-discovery and healing from early experiences. Soul Portraits are more than art; they are pathways for clients to honor their journeys and explore all parts of who they are.
Growing up in Vermont, Devorah found comfort in nature, yet it was art that became her true refuge, guiding her through challenges and helping her reconnect with her inner power. After studying at the prestigious Rhode Island School of Design, she developed a rich career in fine art, where her work explored themes of resilience, vulnerability, and connection. In 2019, she made the bold choice to step away from traditional gallery representation to foster a more direct, intimate relationship with her audience. Opening her studio allowed her to create a space where people could connect with her work and process on a personal level.
Today, Devorah offers commissioned Soul Portraits and a home kit, which invites people to create their own Soul Portrait as a way to explore their personal narratives with depth and authenticity. Her mission is to inspire empowerment and wholeness, helping others turn life experiences into powerful expressions of self-acceptance and growth. Living in Lake Oswego, Oregon, with her husband and three children, Devorah continues to expand her creative journey, sharing her gifts in a way that celebrates human connection and transformation.
