Presence Paintings

A Release

A Release 30" x 40", original acrylic on canvas

The vision for this painting was a release of gifts from the heavenly realm. The dark top feels like the second heaven to me, with the Lord powering through to release His Presence into us and onto the earth. I can see angels in it - the ascension of Jesus - and the release. And His Power.

healing Light

healing Light, 36" x 36", original acrylic on canvas

This is a painting of God releasing light that burns through cancer cells and destroys them from the inside out. Only God heals, so the painting itself does not bring healing, but God did inspire the entire painting over a four month time span.

Spirit Hovering

Spirit hovering, 24" x 36", original acrylic on canvas

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters." Genesis 1:1 The Holy Spirit is hovering in this day, as in Genesis. He's hovering and waiting for us to join in His escapades. It's an exciting (new)day to be alive! (Done during worship at NewDay.)

Towering Praise

towering praise, 48" x 72", original acrylic on canvas

This rather large painting is the latest in my tree series. I love being in the woods. It reminds me so much of God's creative nature. Although God is quick to turn to us as we turn to Him, I do feel so very close to Him while in the woods or at the lake. Did feel like the Lord woke me one morning with words for my trees, "Stand tall in Me." Amen.

seven Spirits of God - acrylic on canvas, 36" x 24"

“The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him — the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.” Isaiah 11:2

Passion

Passion - acrylic on canvas, 36 x 36 inches

After studying this painting for awhile, it most reminds me of passion. The Lord loves passion. Passion for Him. Passion for doing His will. Passion for what He's done for us. Passion for our dreams. Passion for everything good and God! I love the colors of this piece and I can get lost in it.

Spring Forth

Spring Forth - acrylic on canvas, 36 x 36 inches

The first inspiration I received for this painting was dreams and hope. I see the Glory of the Lord in the orange streaming from heaven with the green in the middle as growth. I think the Lord seeds a dream in us, waits for us to sow into it, and then blesses us! After feeling like the colors were to be "spring-y" and full of hope, I felt Him show me blue splots, top middle, (revelation) and the tree.

In revising, I emphasized the tree more and added much more color and excitement to the painting over all. I've finished the edges and it is done!

The Unfolding

The Unfolding - acrylic on canvas, 36 x 36 inches

Done during worship on March 15th, I felt the Lord saying that we are being sent. So this represents us, God's people, bringing treasures from heaven to earth. Hence, we are flying out the doors, represented by the sides. The colors are new and quite uncomfortable to me, so I struggled a lot afterwards with the painting. It has been suggested that when I struggle painting, it reflects the struggle involved in the prophecy. And it is often a struggle, not only to grasp heaven's vision, but to then "do." Interestingly, my good friend sees this painting as an unfolding from heaven, with treasures in the wings, reflecting, I think, the same vision but from a different perspective. Her title wins. :)

Milk and Honey

Milk and Honey - acrylic on canvas, 12 x 12 inches

The idea for this painting came from some paint jars. After completing the painting, God told me it was the land of "Milk and Honey." I like this! Probably because I was reading Exodus at the time.

Faithfulness

Faithfulness - acrylic on canvas, 12 x 12 inches

God gave me this painting early one morning. Sometimes He does that. :) I don't work in red much, but it reminds me so much of the Lord's love and faithfulness.
