MUSIC OF THE SPHERES 1

This is a new piece from the weekend. I like the closeups as well as the full size piece. There will be more in this series.

RED BARN ON A BLUE FARM

One of a new series of tissue collages that may grace a new restaurant in Fennville, MI.

It's called the Salt of the Earth. Should be great food and good art!

The bottom photo is a painting I did in 2004. After I finished it, I started another take on the scene but it got way too tight and detailed. I got frustrated and painted most of it out and started over but then turned it to the wall. This weekend I took another look at it and brought it to a finish. Same location, different take on the landscape.

CRAZY PAPER QUILT

I did this to fit a long frame that's been languishing in the basement. It turned out pretty cool, if I do say so myself. I love elongated compositions. Details of the piece are on the next post down.

The colors of the rainbow of God’s promise to Noah and his children form the foundation of this piece. The grid of organization and predictability dissolves into individual cross shapes that tumble through space. Along with the labyrinth, they suggest that we are each are traveling our own mysterious path of faith in the light of God’s love.

This piece was presented to Naji Umran and his wife Anne Zaki to celebrate them and their 6 years of service to Church of the Servant CRC. They have been wonderful and inspiring members of our church family. They will be traveling to British Columbia and starting work there in a church plant.
