Live Paintings
These pieces were all painted live onstage, often at church but sometimes in other venues and events. Most often these works will reflect my faith and were a product of meditation and prayer.
Memento Mori
Though this phrase is Latin for "remember you must die," it is meant to remind us all to make the most of the time we have. In addition, when I have images of dead birds, it is a reference to the scripture in Matthew that says that God knows whenever even a small bird dies, and cares about each one, and how much more he cares about each of us.
