My Art Goes to Italy

A church community in 
Italy used art from my Parable Paint Series as inspiration for a fun evening of food, fellowship and creativity.
The painting they chose was the Parable of the Sower... 

from 

Matthew 

13:1-23

illustrating four kinds of soil; or ways people respond to Christ.  

These are photos from the night they got together to do their group art project.

I loved seeing the variety of ages of people working on the project together.  


Each of them painted a section of 

the original design.  

When they were finished, they were able to put them
all together ..

to

create 

the entire

image. 

 

What 


they


created


was


not



only


a


unique


piece


of 


art 


. . .







but


       also










a 

     beautiful 


                 experience!





Even though this all happened in Italy... I feel by sharing my art as the inspiration for their project,  I was also there.

 

Since I was not...
I had to miss out on their delicious food.  
Yum!   






I am so happy to share their creative spirit with all of you.  BE INSPIRED !!!

A Conversation With My Canvas

For three weeks I have not painted... 
My well was dry and creativity would not flow.  


I waited... 


       and dead silence... 


nothing gushed forth to the surface.  


I could not force a drop, and the barren canvas sat lonely on my easel.  


                                       It cried out to me...

I know 
    I must.... 


         But what?    


                  What is worth painting?

Trees?  Just trees again?

                 Yes my Spiritual sister says... 

                                 "Paint the Aspens".

Yes, You will become ART... soon.

                             And you, all my friends, 

                                              Like my easel, You also have been waiting. 

Waiting for a post with a painting.  

I hear and you will have it soon  I am inspired and paint is flowing, and soon 

                            you shall see The Aspens!
