Frenches Pond (2019)

Frenches Pond (2019)

Acrylic paint in journal.

In March 2019, I returned from a silent monastic retreat and, while reconnecting with the Holy Spirit, I have (yet again) rekindled my joy in painting after a dry-spell. I received spiritual guidance from the Trappist monks there and found direction again. I have prayed for this, as I felt aimless with my art, and am truly grateful that God had heard me.
