"Thanks" Where "Thanks" Belongs


To quote one of my favorite artists, Dan McCaw, "Art is a collaboration between the heart and mind in an effort to expose a piece of the artist's soul." I'm not sure about all of that but somewhere between my head and my hand is a place that loves to paint, my heart. I have to give the glory to my Lord, Jesus Christ, and thanks to Him for the ability He's given me, to Nick for his encouragement, to Dan McCaw for his inspiration and my mom, Peggy Pettit, who thinks I can do anything (gotta love those moms!). But, let's leave the exposed soul to the Master, shall we?

On Jan. 20, 2011 the art group I paint with had the honor of spending a wonderful day with world reknown artist Leonard Wren. Leonard graciously worked on one painting from each of us. We learned mega from this day. This is how he perfected my painting. (see the photo below to see the "before" painting) Thank You, Leonard!
