To me, the act of painting is a reflection of my spiritual temperament. Most of the time, I strive for an atmosphere of worship and meditation, (Is it foolish to say that I just listen to the little voice in my head while I work?).God manifests his essence first in the natural world, then in the spiritual world; my feeble attempts are to portray his persona through mimicry of his natural creations and the results may be beautiful, sensual, exciting or just simply funny.
As I think about the arts, particularly some of the music produced by today’s artists, much of it is so burdened with a cultural evil bent on “de-civilization”, and whose small tentacles grow larger every day. Lest I seem like some doomsayer, I think that as a Christian artist, it is important for me to enlighten and inspire, as it is a reflection of God’s grace. God is speaking through my art. Through the manipulation of modest and sometimes clumsy mortal media I attempt to communicate love, hope and joy by the images that represent the life cycle - birth, death and rebirth.
