Jesus is the reason for the season. The greatest gift ever given. He came to sacrifice himself for each and all of us and did so upon the cross. Jesus no longer sleeps in a modified manger, and He is certainly not still nailed to…

I painted this one for my mother as well, and on the same size canvas. Normally, I use 3 to 4 different paint brushes for my paintings, but, for this one, I had to use a very fine, very small brush that held a small…

This piece was painted on a considerably smaller canvas than the rest. It is intended to be placed above the door frame at the front door on the inside of a house. Not my normal look, but this painting was created to meet the specifications…

I painted the open door to show what would happen if you answered Jesus’ knock at the door. I painted the cross at the entrance of the door and showed the shadow of it on the ground leading “inside” toward the observer. Purchase Print

One of my favorites, “Emergence” shows the hand of Christ moving the stone from His grave. I always imagined that early on Easter morning, before the sun had risen, an overwhelming light came from inside the tomb that held Jesus for 3 days after His…

This painting can mean very different things to different people. I wanted to show a perspective of Jesus walking on water here, but the message of the painting is more powerful. As a Christian, I strive to be as much like Jesus as possible. I…

Paul and Silas were beaten and imprisoned in Acts 16. They spent their time in the inner cell praising God with songs and prayer. Even when their chains were shook loose and the door opened, they stayed in their cell and praised Him. The guard…

Another representation of Moses, this painting references when Moses approached the burning bush. Now maybe one day I’ll painting the burning bush itself, but I have always keyed on the part where God commands Moses to take of his shoes when reading the story. Obviously…

“As long as Moses held up the staff in his hand, the Israelites had the advantage. But whenever he dropped his hand, the Amalekites gained the advantage. Moses’ arms soon became so tired he could no longer hold them up. So Aaron and Hur found…

The transformation that Saul went through outside of Damascus is inspiring to me. Saul was a very dark man spiritually before this transformation. I struggled to come up with a good way to portray a light so bright that it would be described as blinding.…
