As always, this event is free and open to everyone, and refreshments will be provided by Gaines Group Architects.
Series Name: Everyday Beauty
Medium: Mixed Media Acrylic and Watercolor
Artist Statement: "The goodness and beauty of God’s creation is evident all around us: the way that light spills across a doorway, the beauty of unique people, the gossamer wings of an insect, the intricate patterns of plants and flowers, or the brilliant colors of a sunset. God has
also generously bestowed upon us the ability to participate in his creative work both through care of his creation as well as through artistic endeavors like music, poetry, dance and visual arts. My art is my attempt to connect to this creative spirit and the beauty I see all around
me. It also is a way to for me explore and process the complex range of experiences and emotions that are part of being humans created in God’s image."
