In Matthew chapter 4, verse 19, Jesus says, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Years ago, I was introduced to Gyotaku (an ancient Japanese fish printing art that actually involves spreading ink or dye onto an actual fish and pressing it…

Rahab helped the spies Joshua sent to the city of Jericho. The king of Jericho would have killed the spies if it weren’t for Rahab. She feared the Lord and risked her life for Him and His purpose. The red cord in the painting is…

The Holy Trinity is God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit in one. This piece is set to portray a visual representation of this. There are 3 faces in the painting, and each has a specific color and focus point. God’s face is represented by the…
