Through the use of many different handmade papers, textures, metals etc, I like to explore and experiment until I can produce exciting results.

While I am creating, I often think about how we all have different life experiences, stories, good, and bad... but together they are “our life”. Just like all the unique elements I use, when woven altogether, they create something beautiful “Out of Nothing”.

This collage is designed from many different objects, papers, acrylic skins, etc. I love to experiment using different textures, bringing them together to form a harmonious intriguing work of art.

With each textural element that I incorporate into my collage work, I am reminded that just like in life, we all have different experiences, stories, good and bad... but together they are "our life".

What truly amazes me is, how all those things woven together can create something beautiful if we allow them to. Making the right choices to use our different life experiences to strengthen and inform us, can cause us to create something beautiful... OUT OF NOTHING.

When I begin my prayer with Adoration - it allows the "pulse" of my prayer to be thrust from a different mindspace. It causes me to focus less on myself and more on God, His generous gifts to me, and His attentive work in my life and in the lives of others.

This textural work was inspired by a song Lyric by The Belonging Co, titled "Let Faith Rise Up"

As I watch and listen to the waves as they eb and flow, I hear my heart cry out in my chest

"Let Faith Rise up, O heart believe, Let Faith Rise up in me"

"Let Faith Rise up, O heart believe, Let Faith Rise up in me"

See partial lyrics below

I don't want to be afraid
Every time I face the waves
I don't want to be afraid
I don't want to be afraid
I don't want to fear the storm
Just because I hear it roar
I don't want to fear the storm
I don't want to fear the storm

I'm not gonna be afraid
'Cause these waves are only waves
Oh, I'm not gonna be afraid
I'm not gonna be afraid
I'm not gonna fear the storm
You are greater than its roar
I'm not gonna fear the storm
Oh, I'm not gonna fear at all, yeah

Peace be still
Say the word and I will
Set my feet upon the sea
Till I'm dancing in the deep, oh
Peace be still
You are here so it is well
Even when my eyes can't see
I will trust the voice that speaks

Let faith rise up, Oh heart believe
Let faith rise up in me.
Let faith rise up, Oh heart believe
Let faith rise up in me

Many of my paintings evolve from the processing of my thoughts. This particular painting was created out of a desire to paint a "visual reminder" for myself, that God WILL provide.

In the bible, there is a story about a man who wanted to live hislife to honor God. He had lived long enough to see and experience some of Gods ways, but imagine what was going on in Abraham's mind when he was taking his son, and wood for a fire, up the mountain to ffer a sacrifice to God. Imagine your son asking you "Dad, where is the lamb for the sacrifice?"i

After all that Abraham and his wife had been through... waiting and longing for children for such a long time, who would have ever imagined that now he would even consider offering back to God, the very thing he had longed for, and had been given. Abraham is being obedient to do what he feels God has called him to do.... even though he does not know the end result.

Was he full of fear... questioning... thinking the worst?? He steadfastly continued on in what he felt called to do.

Thoughout his life in scripture, Abraham had received several promises from God. God promised him land, numerous descendants, blessings "for" him and his descendents, and blessing "through" him for all nations. Abraham had already experienced one promise of God, but not without a very long wait.

Maybe you can relate. Have you been waiting for so long.... praying for, and desiring something in your life that does not seem to be coming to fruition?

In the end, God provides a ram in the thicket for Abraham to sacrifice on the alter.

Through the use of layers, texture and colour, I experiment to see where each piece will guide me.

This piece speaks to me of Christs sacrificial love, and His blood that was shed for ALL who would choose Him.

The harmonious textured piece is rich with depth, yet calming with its muted colour. It has an element of rhythm, but the composition pushes the boundaries reaching "Outside the Box".

Pursuing Freedom - isn't that our constant goal in life?

To become free from the things that tie us down or bind us up - Freedom to be who we were created to be.

This unique piece is not how it first appears.

It started as a background of yellows, oranges and reds over the entire surface. The texture - it appeared as "coral" to me. Then I saw what appeared to be the face of a sea turtle. Rather than painting a turtle, or the fish, etc, each form "appeared" as I painted the negative space around it - the greens and blues. After adding shadows and hi-lite, their forms took shape. This painting continued to call me into the depths - into the distance beyond what was clear. Before long it was teaming with life as the all the sea creatures swam around in their amazing surroundings.
