I’d Love to Hear Your Faith Stories

I moved to a new town at the end of 2020. Moving in your 50s can be a bit daunting. Would I make friends? Where would we go to church? Would my grown kids want to come home to a place that had never been home to them? Would I start a new career, hobby or further my education? So […]

Take the Time to Detangle

Do you remember using Johnson’s detangling spray when you were little? If you were a girl growing up in the late 70’s, early 80’s, with long hair, then you can probably smell it right now just by reading these words.  Without that spray my hair was a tangled, hot mess and a brush was the enemy. However, when the detangler […]

Glory Garden – #6 Lent Painting

This small 10 X 10 canvas holds much weight. In fact, as I prayed, painted, worshipped and followed Holy Spirit’s lead, I felt the full weight of Glory. He spoke directly to my heart and expressed His message through my hand and onto this canvas pouring out a specific anointing on this particular piece. These are some of the words […]

Blue – #5 Lent Painting

These pour paintings have been a messy, marvelous, new adventure! No paintbrush comes into play and I have very little control as to what the design turns out to be. I get to choose my colors, dump the paint on a canvas and tilt the canvas until the surface and sides are covered. I splattered a few more color highlights […]

Show Your Gold – #4 Lent Painting

If we look for dirt, we will find it. If we look for GOLD, we will find that too. Which filter is our normal go-to? I am having a blast playing with this new art technique, pour painting, and today’s masterpiece has layers of meaning. “Show Your Gold” represent some of my history but it also declares my destiny, your […]

Wonder~Full – #3 Lent Painting

“…Stop and consider God’s wonders.” Job 37:14 CSB “Wonder~Full” The straight line of the horizon How the sky touches sea. The wind that makes a whistle The breath that blows the tree. The symphony of sights and sounds Cascading from the clouds. The golden glow of Glory Makes the Master Painter proud. When ray and rain collide Light decides to […]

Pitchers of His Presence – #2 Lent Painting

I have always been a little outside of the box. I love seeing treasure sifted from trash and I get giddy when I see someone repurpose things in unexpected ways. Earrings made from old watch pieces, bracelets strung from guitar strings, hair bands out of old telephone chords, canvases full of paint with sheet music, bible verses and quotes Mod […]

A Sacrifice of Praise – #1 Lent Painting

This Lent I hear God asking me to get creative with a sacrifice of praise. Instead of giving up something, I am leaving something beautiful behind. I am going to exercise my creative muscles for His Glory every day this Lent. Today is day 1 and I am being obedient. I wrote for the first time in a while on […]
