Original Art Inspired By Biblical Scripture
My inspiration and motivation lies in reading and meditating on God’s Word, worship music, dancing in worship, teachings, observing different kinds of arts, poems and nature photography.
The starting point for my creative process is to read up substantially about the topic in my personal Bible then I brainstorm, meditate, create mind maps in my journal and pray for The Holy Spirit to guide me through the whole process.
All my original paintings are done in mixed media and I use Winsor & Newton acrylic & oil paints which has excellent quality pigment colors. I also prefer working on stretched primed canvases.
First I prepare my backgrounds with either Acrylic pouring or Acrylic painting techniques. This is the stage where I would do some mixed media, by collaging either old Bible pages or Gold leaf. Secondly, Images are drawn on prepared canvas, using either pencil or charcoal. Thirdly, I paint the images using Burnt Umber oil paint in a Grisaille style and finished it off with color by using glazing or dry brushing techniques to enhance or fade the images.
Each painting may take anywhere from 1-5 months & pricing is based on size and also how long the painting has taken.
I love doing bespoke paintings/commissions, so please contact me via email or Phone if you would like to discuss having a unique prophetic (painting with a message) for your home or office.
Your dream/vision or a reminder of something/someone special in your life is a wonderful way to incorporate into your bespoke artwork, I can even add your favorite scripture that has a special meaning to you.
