VISION

I have come to understand that for there to be

darkness there has to be an absence of light. Where

light is, there is no darkness. There are two kingdoms

at work in our world. One is of light the other is of

darkness. Jesus the Christ said that the Kingdom of

Heaven is now at hand and that He is the Light of the

world. In Him there is no darkness. This the Kingdom

that I belong to. In it I believe that I have been

called and purposed to release the Light that abides

in me to the world through the paintings that I do.

When I took my first steps into this calling and

purpose six years ago, Jesus the Christ revealed to

me His desire to release a second Renaissance into

the world that reveals Him and His heart as never

before. The first renaissance, intended to bring the

world out of the time known as the dark ages, was

derailed into humanism. Focusing more on man and

less and less on Him. But He has said, " not this

time".The new wave of artistic expression will be

Christ focused and stay that way. This is because

the arts have the ability to bypass the mind and

pierce the heart and evoke a response as nothing else

can.This release of the arts whether it is music,

dance, drama, writing, sculpting, painting, media, or

any creative expression, will be used to impact those

within our circle of influence until it covers and

changes our world. The light it releases will over

come this present darkness.

I count it a privilege to be able to be a part of what

Jesus the Christ is doing in the earth today. That

said, I am compelled to say it is not about me or is it

about you. I have been asked why I sign my

paintings with His name and this is why, it is about

Him and Him alone.

The paintings I do are prophetic in nature, often

times used to give specific words to individuals and

groups. They have also been used in warfare,

intercession, and worship. They have brought

healing and restoration to those have ears to hear

and eyes to see. It is my prayer and belief that if you

will truly open your ears and your eyes you too will

be touched by Heaven and Jesus the Christ will speak

to you and meet your need.
