The Prelude
Ever since I was a little girl, I enjoyed all things “art”. In High School, I was eager to try it all; painting, drawing, piano, weaving, pottery, singing, woodwork, jewelry making, design - all seemed to have endless possibilities. I saw creativity on display everywhere, and it brought me such joy. My Big Dream was to someday master at least one of those skills and BE a great artist.
…the whole gang
The Storyline
It’s been more than 40 years since those Big Dreams were formed. I’ve enjoyed a blessed life as a wife, mother, and grandmother of nine. Hubby and I have served God in many ways, in the local church as staff and Senior Pastors, traveling the country as drama directors, working with a compassion ministry and have met so many wonderful people. Christ has always been first in our lives, and it has been our privilege to use our abilities for His Kingdom.
…here I come!
A New Beginning
In 1978, I made an obedient prayer before God that laid my art endeavors aside to focus on our family and ministry, with a request that He would someday allow me to receive them back again. A few years ago, He spoke, “It was time!” So now I begin again. This time my only teacher is my Heavenly Father. I’m learning more everyday; it’s a new journey. My Big Dream is back and my JOY is full!
