Looking for a Spell.

[sgtrocknroll]

Got a character whose parents were killed years ago that she wants to get a portrait done of them.

The character is an inquisitor so she cannot cast anything like simple image to show the artist what they look like.

Is there a spell that an NPC can cast that can get the image or get an idea of what the parents look like (in the character's eyes at least) in order to be able to project that image into the artist's mind so the painting is accurate?

Share Memory springs to mind.

Silent image would do it.

Just modify the image like a police sketch artist would.

This. Though, since the image of the parents doesn't have to be full-size or need to be realistic enough to fool anyone, I'd say that a simple prestidigitation cantrip should be sufficient to creat a miniature ghostly image that the artist can study. This is the kind of simple magical effect Prestidigitation is designed for.
