Catalysts of Peace
The five ladies represent different nationalities and are wearing crowns to show their royalty as Daughters of King Jesus. There are five ladies, as the meaning of the number five is ‘grace’ and they need God’s grace to be Catalysts of Peace. There is a cross on their...
The King’s Daughters
I used to be a fashion illustrator and fashion designer so I often gravitate back to painting the female form. I painted this to remind female believers that as the King’s daughters we have a royal lineage. We can hold our heads high, living confidently out of the...
Regal Sisters
“Regal Sisters” is a unique art deco painting with luxury, glamour, and a hint of Klimt. The bold geometry, texture and detail make this work distinctive. Embellished with glitter and rich colors, the overall effect gives the sense of royalty and confidence. In...
The Way Through
This represents the twists and turns we often make before we break through to our freedom. The dark blues and purples at the top of the painting speak of the hardest time which can often come before the breakthrough. The splashes of orange, green, magenta and gold...
In the Midst of It All
Despite all the natural disasters, wars, pain and suffering in our world – the cross remains as the symbol of hope, freedom, wholeness and eternal life.
A Brighter Tomorrow
This is a very textured work with the positive statement “a brighter tomorrow” written into the painting. The intention is to encourage the viewer that it is within their power, with making right choices, that their tomorrows will be brighter.
Entering In
This painting came about when I woke around 5.30am one morning with this image before my eyes, and knew I had to paint it. This work is totally different to anything I have painted before. I asked God what it meant and the revelation I had was that the circles...
Universe – In His Hands
This is the first of a series. I personally marvel at the stars and the universe. It displays the awesome handiwork of our creator God. It has a cross in the work as a reminder that God has the universe and His whole creation in His hands.
Christchurch Cathedral – There is Hope
Christchurch’s beautiful cathedral was badly damaged in an earthquake, including losing it’s steeple. It is hoped the cathedral will be rebuilt. I was inspired to portray the cathedral in an artwork showing the damaged cathedral and a rebuilt cathedral. I wanted to...
I am the Door
Hope for Christchurch
When I heard about the earthquake in Christchurch I had a desire to create an image of hope. To me the cathedral is symbolic of the whole city so this work is a metaphor of the rebuilding of Christchurch. I chose the words of the National Anthem as a backdrop to this...
Five Wise Women
These women with oil in their lamps are ready for any circumstance. They represent qualities of preparedness, resilience, and forward thinking. My motivation in painting this is to encourage women to be wise in troublesome times.
I Am Beautiful
Free to be me
This is the second in my series on self esteem. I see people as beautiful and unique and this painting is to remind people to be free to be themselves and not be influenced to strive to be like someone they aren’t.
