Kids paintings

"Salvation belongs to the Lord." I did this painting with a bunch of kids a few years ago after they studied the story of Jonah. (I can't seem to get this painting to rotate. Maybe some of you how are more advanced than I am in the blogging world can help.) :)

"Joy." This painting is an example of the fact that our Christian joy is contagious and we can share it with those around us.

"Do not Conform." Romans 12:2 was the theme for KidLife week several years ago. The kids had a great time painting the fish.

"Be Set Apart." Exodus 19:23- Be set apart as holy. So often in life we, as Christians, appear as other people around us. Yet, we can still be "Set apart as holy."

"And the two became one." That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united with his wife, and the two became one. Genesis 2:24 This was created in honor of my friends Beth and Matt.

"A City on a Hill." 1 Kings 16:24- He built a city on a hill, calling it Samaria.

"A time to Dance." Ecclesiastes 3:4


Paintings

"Appointed to his Service." This painting is based on Exodus 31:6, I have appointed Oholiab son of Ashisamak to help him.

"God Clothes the flowers of the Field." Matthew 6:28

"Amazing Grace" This painting was created with the idea that God's grace is different for all of us because he meets us where we are.


Something New

I thought I would try something new. So many of you guys out there have blogs. You are my inspiration. So, here goes.


This is the painting that started it all. "A Friend loves at all Times. Proverbs 17:17" I talked with some friends about teaching some painting classes and quickly got off track discussing faith. One of my friends commented about how I could combine both my art and my faith. So, Art from the Heart was born. Each of my paintings in based on a different Bible Verse.

So, let the blogging fun begin.
