Finding Healing Through Art
Sometimes I feel that God is the Vine, and my hands are his branches. Each moment of my life has impacted a particular painting. While many art pieces are influenced by painful moments that occurred in my life, not all art is necessarily motivated by pain. We live balancing joy and sorrow.
I have found expressing my feelings through paint and brush, not only brings inspiration but also clarity in my healing process.
My prayer is that my art reaches into your story and goes with you as a companion in your healing journey.

Fathers come in all sizes and personalities.
So does each one’s grief when a father dies.
You are grieving uniquely because the relationship
you shared was original between the two of you.
Let the healing love of forgiveness wash away all regrets.
Let the grace of God keep you treasuring all that made your Dad so special to you.
Let the hope of resurrection comfort your thoughts and feelings with glorious anticipation.
Let grace, mercy, and peace be with us in truth and love from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, Son of the Father! 2 John 1:3 The Message

Jesus wept
It’s okay for you to cry
Your tears honor the love and memories of your beautiful child.
Like hot lava, it is liquid love that must flow.
Jesus wept
It’s okay for you to cry
Your tears are noticed and kept track of until
that last salty flow God, himself, wipes dry
in the land of eternal life, laughter, and love.
You kept track of my every toss and turn through the sleepless nights, each tear entered in your ledger, each ache written in your book. Ps. 56:8 The Message

You don’t have to be strong.
You don’t have to be brave.
Just be the real hurting man that you are.
Your loss is significant because your love was deep. Honor your wife with your tears.
Let her sweet memory awaken both your smile and your sorrow: all the while
remaining open to the healing grace-full presence of God.
