the definition of my art

My artwork are like messengers, sent out with love, to those who need them.
Those are the people who  connect deeply with a piece of my work and are changed or encouraged because of it.
My art reflects principles of truth and hope to hold on to and live by.
My art is playful and versatile, made for all ages. It is created to connect all generations thru the use of old and new materials.
My art assaults the senses causing the observer to react immediately to the artwork.
My art is non judgmental. If you don't like it, that's OK. If you have a suggestion, that's OK too.
My art is not racial. We are all equal in God's eyes.
My art is not directly political. If you find a political meaning in my art, it was not intended to be interpreted that way unless indicated in the art's description.
My artwork is created to reflect our Creator God, who made all things.

I believe that God,  the Father, sent His only Son,  Jesus, to earth to teach and show us how we are to live; and ultimately Jesus came to suffer and die for all of our sins and the sins committed against us so that we can be free from punishment for our sins. He rose again to life after three days in the grave and now sits at the right hand of the Father God. Jesus teaches us forgiveness and the true meaning of love thru the way He lived His life on earth and through His suffering on the cross.
It's a wonderful true story you can read. Simply find a Bible, and start reading the Gospel of John.

If you do not have access to a Bible, here are a few ways to find one.

- Salvation Army stores give out free Bibles. Many other Thrift stores give them away as well.
- find a church and either ask for one or if you can borrow a Bible.
If that is too intimidating,  that's OK.
- if you have an android smartphone you can download the free Bible app called You Version  (that's one I use.)
If you have a question about what version to get,  stick a
With New King James Version, New International Version,  English Standard Version. Those are the ones I think help the best to understand what it says.
- Many Christian radio  stations give away Bibles. Just contact them to find out more.
- Visit the local library and check a Bible out. That's a free way to read one.
If none of those work for you,  send me a message with your mailing address and I will get a Bible to you.

What I do with my art is important to me because it is an avenue that I can freely express my heart thru. There usually is a lot of emotion and sweat put into each piece, but with the knowledge that it may not turn out the way I think and it surprise me. 

If there is any piece of art that is posted on this blog that you are interested in purchasing,please contact me and we'll make a way for that. 

If you are out there struggling to find what your art means or is defined by,  don't give up. It took me over 10 years to realize what I've shared. Take each moment as they come and don't let fear keep you from success.
