A New Perspective


A New Perspective        18 x 36    oil    $1500

Isaiah 42:10  Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise from ( the top of the mountains), the end of the earth, as you go down to the sea, the coastlands and their inhabitants.

Have you ever sat on top of the world, looking down in the valleys, thinking about all of the people, their lives, their busyness, their joys and their troubles?  Stepping out of my reality and looking at the big pictures gives me perspective on life.

On My Way Home

Going Home Series #4    20 x 24    0il    $960.  unframed

Smith Mountain Lake is a natural resource in Western Virginia.  The dam was created in a gap of Smith Mountain, in the 60s, to impound  the Roanoke River.   It now covers over 20,000 acres and extends 40 miles from this point.  I cannot imagine a more beautiful home than one in the mountains and on the lake. Can you imagine this view on your way Home?

Country Roads Take Me Home


                                 Going Home Series #3   oil   16 x 20    unframed $650.

Country roads are so beautiful when the red clay turns into shadows  of blue and purple.  Most of my new paintings are redefining the use of gold for me. Color and light is what it is all about!

Streets of Gold

                                                Going Home Series #2   18 x 24  oil   unframed  $850.


 Insead of following the yellow brick road, how about following the "streets of gold" sky?  Could the contrast between cold blue shadows on earthly snow and the warm golden rays of Heaven  visually speak of the longing I feel for Home?

Going Home

                                       Going Home Series #1    15 x 30     oil   unframed  $900.

This sunset is the end of the day and the beginning of a new series of "Going Home" paintings.  My desire is to paint, in visual images, the longing for home.  As I follow the "Son", He keeps reminding me of the fact that we were made for another world, another home where there is peace, and an eternity of joy... and that we see shadows of this reality everyday!  I am so looking forward to seeing His shadow as I walk the path of following His Light.
