Artist Statement
The primary principle of my art is to paint and create prints from life the message of Jesus Christ. Our humanity provides the greatest inspiration for my work. It is through the Spirit of God and the Reborn human condition that my obsession for art is found in larger-than-life representations of the Holy Spirit on canvas and in print.

I love using the contrasts of shapes ,colors , and textures finding them as we relate to the Spirit of God . How our spirit man can be rendered in such glory as we give praise to our creator and God.

With this I can make my case for the wonderful and marvelous creation given to us by God. Creating positive images and reflecting God's greatest attribute –LOVE--

The Limited Edition of prints are designed to encourge those who visit my collection to become collectors of the prints . Please find pleasure in the work and effort to be a witness of our Lord and the Spirit of God here with us. God Bless and enjoy.
