Genesis 1:27 – “So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.” I am an artist – thanks to the gift God gave me. I love to create. This passion of mine, this gift, often makes me think of this verse in the Bible. God created me in His image. He loves to create too! So I often think about what it is about creating that I love. I love the process to be sure. I love to play with all the tools and the different mediums and endless ways of creating, making marks, shapes and forms in both 2 and 3 dimensions. Searching for inspiration is always fun, sometimes challenging but almost always an adventure. Seeing my ideas come to life and transform from one minute to the next is a definite rush. I often wonder if God had similar thoughts and feelings, after all we are made in His image and likeness.
