Pouring Out His Holy Spirit

                                                  Living Water Series #2  12 x 24    0il   $900.

After fighting with these waves, I am so glad that I chose to paint water in all its forms!  It is indeed challenging, but I always love to stretch and grow in my abilities. An online class helped and I am looking forward to exploring more images of water.  I also find much joy in praising my Savior for the Beauty of this world.  God calls Himself the "spring of Living water"and Isaiah uses flowing water to picture God pouring out His Holy Spirit.  May God pour out His Spirit on His children as we fight the evil that is so prevalent in this world.

 

Invitation

 

Also open weekday afternoons, from 1-4, at the PBS Station until August 7th.

Forgotten

 Updating blog, found a painting that was sold before it was posted. Must have been forgotten. So glad we do not have to feel forgotten.  God is always with us. 

All Is As It Should Be

Going Home Series #51   28 x 38   $2,200

  One last inspiration for a painting in this series....

" The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is  to go outside, somewhere they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God.  because only then does one feel that all is as it should be."  Anne Frank

Split Rock Falls

                                        Living Water Series #1         24 x 36    oil  $2,000.

I am very excited to begin a new series of water paintings.  To paint the movement of water is a challenge but what an incredible feel of refreshing coolness in the summer heat.  Can you feel the spray and hear the roar?  I want to get the senses involved in these paintings and at the same time explore the spiritual metaphors of water.
 

The Last Valley

                                                Going Home Series # 50    16 x 20   oil    $650.

"We are not made for the mountains, for sunrises or other  beautiful attractions in life; those are simply moments of inspiration.  We are made for the valley and the ordinary things of life and that is where we have to prove our stamina and strength."  Oswald Chambers

This quote makes me cry.  I don't want to be in the valley, but I know by experience how true it is that this is where we learn to be on our knees, which is exactly where God what us to be.

This finishes my Father, Son and Holy Spirit Series.  My goal was 50 paintings.  Now I'm on to something new.  Next post will explain!
