"Jeremiah’s words from Chapter 29:11-13 have been instructive, comforting and inspiring to believers over the generations. Jeremiah was speaking to the Jews who had been captured and carried off to Babylon. He reiterated the old promises God had given Abraham to encourage and remind the Jews that God is faithful to keep his promises to his people. God desires for restoration of the relationship between himself and his people. This was true then. It is true today. He will hear anyone who calls, prays and seeks him with all their heart."

"Tan handmade St. Armand paper (with inclusions providing interesting texture) seemed the perfect surface and background for this text. The watercolor for the script lettering flowed easily from the pointed pen. The stacked Hebrew text was drawn, then painted with metallic watercolors. The first word of each column of Hebrew is gold leaf. The text was originally designed as a wedding gift – a blessing for the couple as they began building their life and home."

"The Lord told Moses to have Aaron and his sons pronounce this blessing of security, grace and peace to the Israelites. It is a joy for us to speak this blessing to others. We celebrate with them the blessing we have in our relationship with God.

The tiny gold Hebrew letters were written on St. Armand paper and above the larger English letters of each line. Shalom (Peace) was written with a large brush on Arches Text and placed underneath the lovely transparent St. Armand paper."

"Paul, the writer of Ephesians, saw himself as a spiritual warrior and spent a lot of time in prison. So he personally knew the value of leaning in to these qualities, which he compared to a Roman soldiers basic equipment. He knew relying on the Lord and his mighty power strengthened him for his work for the Lord, both in and out of prison."

"The focus of this work is the text from Matthew 5:16, part of the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus is teaching the crowds; they just heard the beatitudes and this section tells about being salt and light. The rays in the design are other verses pertaining to light. Drama and contrast are achieved by working on black with lots of white pigment in the color."

"A Beethoven sonata becomes more skillfully played as technique with notes, phrasing, dynamics and rests is mastered. It becomes art as the musician infuses the notes with color, passion and emotion balanced with pauses between the notes filled with anticipation and quiet breathing space. In making music of my life, I need to gain perspective on the notes (the dynamics of relationships, moments, events). I can be overwhelmed with the color, passion and emotion of the days and seasons. I need intentional balance to be more focused, fulfilling and purposeful with rests and pauses. In this way, I hope to give expression to the entire score (of life) God has given. The piano background was made by cutting wax paper into the white keys, arranging them to allow space for the black keys, before applying the paint."
