The painting SUNFLOWER TRINITY. This is from a silk that I painted a while ago in Africa, but recently painted the cross over it in translucent oils...the reds running down like blood....praying for His forgiveness over my sins and the generations before me
. My freedom cost Him a lot. I cannot fully grasp it....

ART FOR THE BRIDE LOGO
This painting developed very quick during a worship session at the burn. The worship leader sang his composition of "Hallelujah"... I "saw" the arch very clearly, painted it hesitantly because of its strong Gothic style. But i believe it is a symbol of the Bridegroom waiting throughout the millenniums for the bride. Suffering through the church history's ups and downs... He is waiting for her to come close to Him, to look straight into His eyes, and to feel the covering of His mantel. Also to know that He shed his blood for you, and that HE alone is the true King of this earth, galaxy, and universe. He will come back for his bride. "THE SPIRIT AND THE BRIDE SAY 'COME' AND LET HIM WHO HEARS SAY 'COME!' WHOEVER IS THIRSTY LET HIM COME, AND WHOEVER WISHES, LET HIM TAKE THE FREE GIFT OF THE THE WATER OF LIFE." Revelations 22:17
IN HIS ARMS OF LOVE
THE MANTEL
We are all periodicals who need to rest close to his chest and hear his heartbeat. He is kind and compassionate. His patience with you, I, and all of mankind is astonishing!

This picture was taken at 2 am in the morning...worked nearly all night to finish it for the PARABLES EXHIBITION in Dallas..SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO JUST STICK WITH A PAINTING FOR HOURS ..SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO STOP AND RELAX. i DON'T ALWAYS KNOW WHAT THE RIGHT THING IS...BUT I KNOW AS I WAS PAINTING DEEP INTO THE NIGHT, I FELT CLOSER AND CLOSE TO THE HEART BEAT OF THE FATHER...THE HEART BEAT OF JESUS, AND ALSO FEELING SO SAFE AND PEACEFUL AT HIS CHEST.
My new friend Noreen from the Vineyard Tyler just texted me a scripture that she felt goes so well with the painting: "May the beloved of the Lord dwell in security by Him. Who shields him all day, and he dwells between his shoulders." Deuteronomy 33:12
This a real King James Bible from approx 1650.
It is opened on Psalm 23 and Psalm 27:4... "To gaze upon the beauty of the Lord." That is what i try to communicate with nearly all of my paintings. Let me know if you have any other ideas.
Thank you Ben Adkins for hand crafting the beautiful wood frame for this painting, and also being willing to model for the fathers hands. You and your dad truly follow in the footsteps of The Carpenter.
Angelina, our sweet grandchild, may your angelic wings cary you in higher realms of the Spirit.

This is the finished silk painting of a "glimpse of heaven"...I chose this picture with the children in the background..laughing so freely, because Jesus said "Unless you become like little children you cannot see the kingdom of God"...Like a baby who should not doubt the love of his mum and dad!
Here you see the painting "IN HIS ARMS OF LOVE" many hours later...I really agonised over the hands...tried not to make the prodigal son look so prodigal...because it is always you and me.
Signed on purpose onto the coat (with blood) of the prodigal son-daughter.
In the original you'll see the colors in the upper right corner better...all heaven sings...could not paint the angels in this one...the light flooding the dark soul of the son or daughter....on the coat of the father is written I LOVE I LOVE YOU...it is very cryptic....you can barely read it . Purposely blinded it a bid because we are often so blind to His amazing unconditional love
Here you see the fresh silk paint running down...i took the photo before the paint dried.....

During worship at the CCF womans retreat at Pinecove I "saw" the picture of us beeing so close to his heart...I asked my friend Beth hasz to pray that I could paint this.....hands are always hard. Here using a gold pen and writing ALPHA and OMEGA on the father's mantel. I purposly mixed the immage of the father and the son....Jesus said if you see me you see the father!
This painting we did last year at the same retreat...my friend Patty composed a song called BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER....here we give it to LAdy P. Patience...before her departure to West Africa...the Keys and the baby in the womb are sybols for our destiny in Psalm 139...A psalm we prayed over all of our 4 kids before they were born....
