GLORY DAYS
THE FESTIVAL OF THE LATTER GLORY RAINS
Starting in FEBRUARY of 2025, after the BELOVED BIRDS SERIES, where The Spirit of God asked me to come and fly away with Him, I have been feeling the glory of Yahweh percolating in my midst. It has led me to go back to landscape paintings using some abstract techniques but with glorious golden skies, a mighty rushing river representing the spirit of God, the sensation of winds blowing and clouds bursting, the freshness of Spring, rains and showers of glory, vegetation blooming and dew in the atmosphere. All things roaring life through them. A glorious move of God which pertains to the latter glory rains when His spirit is pouring on all flesh, many people having dreams, visions, hearing words, and having Jesus encounters. Mark the timing. Passover having just happened on 14 Nisan (April 12th); Palm Sunday on 15 Nisan (April 13th); Feast of Unleavened Bread starting on 16 Nisan (April 14th) and today being 18 Nisan (April 16th). A lot happens in one week! REVIVAL is in the air!!!
Habakkuk 2:14
For as the waters fill the sea, the earth will be filled with an awareness of the glory of the LORD.
I invite you to join me on this glorious journey as we make our way back home, remembering that we don't want to leave anyone behind. Yahweh wants that none shall perish. The ones most aware will lead with praise and worship, always glorifying God, always seeking alignment with the Father's heart, and bringing the stragglers forward, giving a helping hand, showing compassion, interceding and sharing the Gospel of the Good News of Messiah Yeshua. We were born, after all, for such a time as this. No other generation will be privy to this time in history. There is turbulence everywhere, wars and rumors of wars but the end is not yet. The Glory Days are here, prodigal sons and daughters are coming home, and to the understanding of their need for repentance and for a savior. Reconciliations and the outward show of affection between the brethren. Open Heavens, and miracle healings and opportunities abound. Let us not forget we are in a worldwide deliverance or exodus, and provisions, signs and wonders will follow. But also Judgement. I will focus on the glory part and let the LORD handle the rest.
THE JOURNEY HOME SERIES
THE JOURNEY HOME Series
Starting in the Fall of 2017, I have been guided to a new body of work that has had a profound impact on my life and perspective of the future ahead particularly when it comes to transitioning out of the physical and into the spiritual realm. It coincides with a time when I was taking care of my father. I thought I was going to heal him but instead he was getting closer and closer to passing. This artwork that surfaced gave me a glimpse of a more beautiful approach to the journey back home to our Heavenly Father. Nirvana was painted with the highest of love and abounding joy…an experience of being transported to another dimension, a higher vibration. I took my time enjoying this process and painting so many pieces that all belonged together. My heart and my art were on fire and there was a sort of urgency. They ended up fitting into a beautiful puzzle that I understood was THE JOURNEY HOME Series. My dad was my witness. I painted the last one titled HERE in a large version while my dad was preparing to leave and HERE is where God held me so tightly, consoled all my emotions and steadied me for the road ahead.
THE TWELVE FOUNDATIONS
The following first twelve oil paintings comprise the THE TWELVE FOUNDATIONS. The entire collections is what I call the Little Treasures of the Journey Home series, the sketches that surfaced again on my painting palettes like the Angels did…one by one as by-products of other paintings. I came to understand their message at about the fourth one…they were each a version of a precious stone, one of the twelve precious stones mentioned in Revelation 21:19-20. They comprised the foundation of the walls of the Holy City to come. Individually I experienced the brilliance, variety and glamour of each stone as seen with the a light coming through and a golden path going in. The rest of them are part of the Journey, glimpses of Heaven, visions of grace, love and faith along with strength and guiding light. Later they will be combined but here I was becoming familiar with each one and again being transported closer and closer to a destination full of light and bliss.
I invite you to join me on this magical journey, to step into my visual world of palette knife painting and delight in my latest inspirations. Feel the warmth, twinkle and strength of the stones that bring us back to a place I feel we belong. These twelve foundations in their order are Jasper, Sapphire, Agate, Emerald, Onyx, Ruby, Chrysolite, Beryl, Topaz, Turquoise, Jacynth and Amethyst.
