"Angel Music to Heal Our World"
24 x 30  oil on board unframed.
 The beautiful blue and white clouds collect the sounds in their moisture drops and send them to other lands and other places to reverberate around the world so that cities and and forest, farms and mountains can reproduce the sounds, trickling into every crevice, to heal and console. Have a blessed, harmonious Christmas! #angel#music#blue sky#Heavenly

Ocean Swell
Just another Water of Life Painting. I have lost track of the number. This is "Ocean Swell", 16 x 20 oil on canvas. s. Did not see any whales, just a few seagulls.
Up and downs of life happen just like waves. Rough waves feel like drowning but also joy.
Depends if you are on the bottom or the top or getting sand in your mouth. Gentle waves feel like nostalgia, peace, and soothing touch

"WATER LILIES"
Using my imagination with alcohol inks, I created these lilies after putting the ink and alcohol on and letting them float into dreamy blobs.  The ink is so brilliant and uncontrollable that way and so much fun.  Then you just figure out what it is.  This painting is on  6 x 6 white tile, and mounted on a black wooden surface.  It is $125. 00.  Shipping is $10.00.

That which God said to the rose, and caused it to laugh in full-blown beauty, He said to my heart, and made it a hundred times more beautiful.
~ Rumi
We are all flowers in God's eyes. "Water Lilies" 6 x 6 al ink on tile. We are bright, joyful, colorful children of God.#Lilies#blue water@bright flowers#happy flowers#laughing flowers#alcohol ink

Sentinel at the Garden


In Colorado Springs is a beautiful natural rock formation named Garden of the Gods. If you are near it you can get a photo of the Garden plus Pike's Peak behind it as well. If you are there in the winter and go to the visitor center, it is just breathtaking. If you go in the evening and the sun is setting, the rocks glow orange. My inspiration with the wolf was to add some life. The painting is cool, but the animal makes it warm.This painting sold at the Sangre de Cristo Art Center in Pueblo, Colorado but is now available for prints

"Water of Life #6" oil, 12 x 36  


It is hard to imagine the millions of snowflakes that make up mounds of snow one by one. But that is how God does things in life. By repetition He puts millions of blades of grass into a field and populates it with flowers and bugs and worms. He makes people with millions of cells in their bodies and even changes those cells out every few days and they work perfectly! From houses with bricks, to hairs on our head to the way we learn to walk, talk and read is all a miracle of repetition!
This painting is not a real place, but a compilation of inspiration of peacefulness.
