Yearnings
I have a continuous yearning to spread my love for nature, family, and above all, the word of the Lord through my artwork. Therefore, you'll usually see them surface in my work, or if nothing else, they're my inspiration to create. Here's a humble sampling of my original works.

tag on tag on tag ad infinitum, well not quite. I like how the message can't be missed on this card. the hand lettering gives an heritage authentic feel to this inspirational project. We appreciate that you have taken time to share with us at Word Art Wednesday this week.

Your art work is a prayer. Yearning is such a powerful urge of the spirit, and you are using yours to create a holy beauty. By the way, your yellow flower fields would make a gorgeous stained class window.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work , those little burlap hearts are so sweet!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the earlier visit, have a good week
