Sneezing in the hay and cedar

We have moved to Leon County, up north of Bryan. There is a different, yet fertile type of cedar tree. Just this morning, I witnessed "smoke" wafting off a male tree in a gust of wind. Yikes. We hope to be back to the Austin area in the near future, depending on job situation. For now, God is giving us peace and a view. I have joined a writers' group over in Buffalo, a sign of life!

What Now?

In reading the newest issue of SEEN from CIVA, I realize that my calling is definitely to the arts and their part in expressing a love for God and a desire to tell others. My vision for an arts center to promote Christian art and non-Christian art here in Cedar Park/Leander remains a possiblity. That came to me without hearing of what was happening in Austin or Greorgetown either one. Now I know both cities are working on an idea. Is there a river I can skate away on anywhere around here? What… Continue

Jesus Carries His Cross and Rides a White Horse

I finished two paintings over the weekend. The two paintings actually make up a unit, not exactly a diptyich as they are meant to hang one over the other. The top painting depicts Jesus carrying his cross down a deserted, urban street. The painting is a commentary on how consumerism hinders our acceptance of the suffering and and need… Continue

The Parodox and Pair o' Ducks Look to the Unknowable

Many years ago a good friend and I talked about paradox. He liked to call it Pair o' Ducks and made the funniest drawing about it. Wish I had it to share. Today I ran across a great quote that kind of speaks to the choir here. I just wanted to share it. The rejection of paradox and ambiguity is the characteristic of heretics in all ages. Heresy is one-dimensional, narrow, over-simplified, and boring. It is straight-line thinking, preferring a pseudo-clarity to the many sidedness of truth, t… Continue
