Art making mania: Well, I seem to be on a roll with the art-making. I’m just in art obsessed mode. I never run out of ideas or new things I want to try! I’ve been watching a lot of you tube videos on art making. This past week I have watched mixed media techniques, howContinue reading “Art Process: Swift Change, Blue Break, and Collage Fodder Madness.”

Chosen
About the Art: This mixed media painting is titled, “Chosen.” It was done as part of my Psalms 102 Ministries workshop on rejection, which is tomorrow, 2.11.23. The title of the workshop is “Addressing Rejection through the Word of God and the Power of the Holy Spirit.” It is my example art of the kindContinue reading “Chosen”
Synergy: Personal updates about what God is doing in my life.
The Shifting: God’s been shifting me, lately, and addressing long standing trouble spots for me in my life, specifically in the areas of identity, thinking/fears, disorder/chaos, and setting boundaries. I believe He’s doing this within his church body; addressing our trouble spots. In particular, He has been addressing my tendency to strive and my rejectionContinue reading “Synergy: Personal updates about what God is doing in my life.”
Golden Healing, Art Process, Part 6
It’s coming along. I fixed the contrast problem of the rain by adding some contrast with some blue glazes….I used various strengths or combinations of glaze and blue on it, from more glaze and less blue to more blue and less glaze. I tried to blend in the dark portions with lighter glazes. That’s theContinue reading “Golden Healing, Art Process, Part 6”
Golden Healing Art Process, Part 5, still in progress
I added a gold glaze to the entire picture to cover over where the clear gesso clumped together and wasn’t clear. It’s best not to use clear gesso over beads or anything bumpy…I thought I could be careful and wipe up the extra…after weeks it was still white certain places…but I think the gold tookContinue reading “Golden Healing Art Process, Part 5, still in progress”

After that, I will close out the GoFundMe and probably delete this post. We’re going to wait to see what we have by next weekend, and thenContinue reading “Car Drive”
Jubilee
My student loans were forgiven today!!! That is 135k wiped clean under the PSLF program!!! This is an answer to prayer to bring justice to an unjust situation. I was repaying under a variation of IBR (Income Based Repayment.) Under PSLF, if you work for a non profit and your loan is owned by theContinue reading “Jubilee”
Wild Hearts
This is a mixed media painting made on 01.05.23. Perhaps it’s my first art piece of the New Year. This painting was started to show others how to do collage in an art therapy group. I found one piece of paper with the words, “heart” and “wild” as well as a bunch of other randomContinue reading “Wild Hearts”

Covered
This is a very personal painting I made for myself during a hard time (somewhere between 2018 and 2020) where I felt like there was much spiritual warfare, chaos, and struggle in my life, yet God showed me His comfort and protection. God was saying that, “No matter what is going on around you, IContinue reading “Covered”
