“The desire to paint comes when I am in awe of the beauty that surrounds me. What the end product on the canvas will be? I am never sure!
My “gift of art” enhances my view and concepts of landscapes and horizons…and with the absence of self-occupation, delight in God’s creation. I feel His sensitivity in flowers…in the array of colours and delicate petals, reflecting love and compassion…sprays of joy.
I experience His refreshing grace as I gaze on bubbling brooks and laughing waters. I sense His peace as I am enraptured by a tropical sunrise, fishing boats at rest…and the evening sun, lighting the hills, settling behind the mountains.
As a landscape artist, I am blessed with the ability and the opportunity to “see abundantly”, and to practice the discipline of simple thankfulness to the Creator for opening heaven’s windows and allowing me to experience creation from a unique vantage point.”
