ARTIST STATEMENT
Writing, painting, photography, making music. . .
These forms of expression are included in something we commonly refer to as art.
Not only do they afford us the opportunity to communicate who we are and what it means to be human, they are, for me, a profoundly effective vehicle for experiencing God.
I believe that all creativity comes from God and that when we enter into the creative process - with humility, genuine expectancy, and a childlike sense of playfulness - He welcomes us as partners into something uniquely powerful.
With that in mind, my primary goals as an artist are to be faithful to the Source, to invest my talents wisely and generously, and to celebrate the marriage of beauty and truth.
