 Part 2 - PEACE series. 

Preparing for the Downtown Lufkin Art Walk on January 28 Part 2 

The process has begun! I settled on the size, medium and theme. Now I need to explore what PEACE really means to me before putting paint on wood. 

The dictionary has plenty to say!
1. a state of tranquility or quiet 
2. a state of security or order within 
3. freedom from disquieting or oppressive thoughts or emotions
4. harmony in personal relations
5. to ask for silence or calm

After digging deep, I settled on 6 words that mean PEACE to me.

CONFIDENCE 
HOPE
SERENITY
CONSTANT 
PASSION
HARMONY

I would love to hear what PEACE  means to you. 
More updates as I complete the PEACE SERIES. 

Thank you for reading. : )

Then sitting in a special place in my garden, I say a prayer of thankfulness. With that, I go to my studio and begin the process.. painting the Stations of the Cross. This past February 12th, a friend told me about a church in Webster, Texas (where a lot of the astronauts attend) announced a “call to artist”. On Good Friday they will have a virtual exhibit featuring artists work that represents The Stations of the Cross. To provide a version of this devotion more closely aligned with the biblical accounts, Pope John Paul II introduced a new form of devotion, called the Scriptural Way of the Cross, on Good Friday 1991 that is more closely aligned with the biblical accounts. This is the version I chose to paint. One painting wasn’t enough for me. I was driven to complete all fourteen and hopefully in...

Creating a Modern Illlumination

 I  was challenged to cr eate a piece to hang in the sanctuary  illuminating Jam es 5:15.   I made a few practice samples to see  if my idea would work. Excited about the solution, I began with a full size sketch, then drew it onto fabric and began slow free motion  stitching over my drawing.  Three layers, fabric and batting, gave a  wonderful dimensional look.  Then I started the painting, slowly and  carefully.  When completed, I backed it in silk. I am thrilled the  combination of stitching and painting worked out as I had hoped!
