To the families that lost their most precious loved ones at Sandy Hook Elementary, I am so very sorry.  I grieve with you.  As a mother to four daughters I am shaken to my core, I wish I could help take the pain away.  You have my prayers, my thoughts, my love.  

"Prayer of Gethseneme", work in progress

This piece is almost finished, just adding detail/highlights.  It's paint pen/acrylic paint on gallery wrapped 24"x24"x1.5" canvas.   Surround Jesus' face is heavy texture created with acrylic stucco medium.  Then a lot of shading and layering.

Treading Water, 60x48

This piece embodies the struggle most souls make through life.  The feeling that sometimes you are just beating against the water-treading to stay up and survive.  There is beauty in the battle though, you just need to look around. ​

48x48 gallery wrapped finished edges​

This is Jesus, during the cruxifiction.  His crown of thorns has severe texture created from stucco medium mixed with paint laid down with the pallet knife.  The X's around Him are representation of angels, which I sneak X's into all of my pieces.  Their representation remains.​
