Title: God of Hope
Media: Watercolor and collage on Arches hot press
Size of Original: 12.5 x 18 inches
Text: Romans 15:13, Hebrews 13: 20-21, Ephesians 3:20-21, Philippians 4:6-7, Numbers 6:26

The five Bible verses in this work - one from Numbers and the other four from the letters of Paul- speak of the blessings of a vibrant, abiding faith in Christ.
The Chinese character for peace was the first mark I made on the paper. The composition was then built up using watercolors and paper in collage.

My fascination with the power of ‘thoughts made visible’ and the mystery of the word as a vehicle of communication has led me on a wonderful journey as I merge message and technique with watercolor, brush and pen into a finished piece. Each piece brings exploration, inspiration and discovery — on a concrete level as I work with my tools and experience; on a spiritual level as a passionate heart treasures God. My response to life’s journey is to work with words, be inspired by great texts, express the abstract more tangibly and ... listen ... for God's still, small, gentle voice within the cacophony of the ups and downs, joys and sorrows experienced. In this relationship God comes transforming, with hope-full and wonderful surprises!
