Canberra, Australia - With a few strokes of her pencil, psychic Karen Knightley sketches incredible images of men and woman she’s never seen before - faces that come to her from beyond the grave.

Knightley’s uncanny portraits have stunned and bewildered witnesses throughout New South Wales and Victoria.

During a recent demonstration for the Canberra Times, the seer startled photographer Justin Knowles by conjuring up visions of loved ones who had passed away.

Moments after she sat down to draw, Knowles recognized the face on Knightley’s pad as that of his grandfather, William Charles Knowles, who died in 1969.

Knightley, 60, then talked of three brothers and said she felt one them died of a heart attack.

William Knowles, it turns out, had three sons. One of them was Justin’s father - who died of a heart attack in 1993.

Minutes after that, the soft-spoken psychic sketched the wrinkled image of Knowles beloved grandmother, who pass away in 1972.

“I keep getting the word Rosie,” she said. “And she seems to be very fussy about her garden. I see her woman wearing a straw hat and surrounded by flowers.”

The photographer’s grandmother was called Minnie-Rose.

Knowles said his grandmother was indeed very finicky about her garden, which she spent hours a day tending.

Knightley then drew Knowles a picture of his mother, Emily, as a young woman and told him that “Fred” was with her.

“I feel as if he’s coughing up blood,” she said.

Emily’s brother, Sgt. Frederick Lambert, was killed in Afghanistan three years ago.

Knightley also sketched a startling likeness of Knowles’ great uncle.

The psychic insists she deserves little credit for her mysterious abilities. “Sometime I close my eyes and get a mental picture of the person I’m drawing, but usually I feel I have become the person I’m going to draw.”
