I will always remember this painting. The verse written on it you have seen on this blog and my website... the Lord's Prayer covers the front of the canvas before a light wash of rust red was tinted over it. The wolves were drawn on and the painting began. This is truly a one of a kind, and the best thing to get is a commissioned painting that is one of a kind.  "Blessed are the Peacemakers, for they will be called Children of God." Matthew 5:9 A short blog today. Been busy with learning curves on FB, and Instagram, cooking and then tending to friends.   We all have times in life where our feelings may be hurt by words from others, some intentional hurts, and some that just sl...

In process above is the painting for the wolves at the opening of this blog. This is the first time I have shared this painting and I did it almost 7 years ago. I love the spirit of the wolf and how it is keenly tied to nature for survival.  When I start paintings, I always ask the person I am painting for, if they have a favorite Bible verse or poem or saying or phrase... to put on the foundation of the canvas before I even begin.  If you want a special painting, please reach out to me and let's get it started!  This has been a heart filled week of prayers surrounding life changes in our family. You really do not 'get it' till it all begins to crumble on top of you. I find my prayers to God increasing trip...

There are those on the floor making their lives among the heads of lions and hoops of fire, and those in the stands, complacent and wowed, their mouths stuffed with popcorn." Christopher Hawk The Unnatural Truth. With those 'winds of change' flying through our lives right now, sometimes you believe you might stop and question who you are and where you stand in a situation. I was calmed totally by scripture and knowing God stepped into my life to make an abrupt right turn for me.  ...

The lone wolf was a myth.”  John Fowles This one started out different. See the steps below:   Always makes me ponder about humans. God has a plan, he creates this person with gifts apart of their DNA, yet he has given a certain amount of free will to each of us.   I actually like the single wolf in the suggestive stage better than the entire finished painting.  Sometimes in my work, I am beginning to 'get' the thought of being fearless. No...

R. Martin "A Game of Thrones" This photo does not do this painting justice... it was deep and wild at the same time. It sold immediately, but my mind perhaps remembers a different emotion to the piece looking at this saved photo. You know it is true in life... you cannot make it alone.  God has to be apart of any success with living alone.  The other part is knowing and mixing ...

Trusting in the Father through ALL times is a challenge and if you can do it, it is the pureness of gra...

All your wishes and hopes for the day rush at you like wild animals. And the first job each morning consists simply in shoving them all back; in listening to that other voice, taking that other point of view, letting that other larger, stronger, quieter life come flowing in. And so on, all day. Standing back from all your natural fussing and fretting; coming in out of the wind." C S Lewis, Mere Christianity This is the completed painting...
