Cascade of HopeVellum Bristol Art paper, KIT PIPI Graphite Pencils, framed in Oak. (4H, 3B), Castle Arts Performing Touch Color Pencils | 11” X 17”The variety of images in this piece capture the scriptures in the book of Peter through Karen’s eyes, and how she sees them after hearing them preached at Golden Hills. In 1 Peter, we can see the incredible amount of work that Jesus has done for us and how the struggles that we all face in life can become a pure testament to His amazing existence in each

The Lion that Seeks to DevourDigital on photo paper | 24” x 54”Taking pictures of 3 people in history; fascist dictator, Benito Mussolini, Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie and Ethiopian English professor, Asfaw Malaku.I “shredded” each person, rearranging their “digital DNA”, and created a distinct new pattern for each person. I then took that pattern and created a symbol that represented each person’s life. Mussolini is depicted as the “Devil who prowls around like a roaring lion looking for

ShadowsOil on canvas | 30"x40"In 1 Peter 5, the devil is described as a prowling lion, seeking to devour. The danger of a lion is obvious, but what if the lion is the kitten that you’ve raised, not recognizing it for a lion until it’s too late? It is easier to resist an enemy that declares itself your enemy. Do you know what danger looks like? In the garden, Eve had a choice. To eat the forbidden fruit or not. We have that same choice every day. To resist the devil or not. It is the attraction and

The Journey To...Acrylic on canvas“The Journey to…” is my piece to reflect on 1 Peter. Through acrylic paints, I really wanted to capture God beauty throughout the world. The people at the bottom of the painting, are those who choose their own path and not the path of the Lord. The ones who are walking to the cross, are those who choose to follow the Lord. Our journey as believers, is to look much different than those who are self reliant. I have much symbolism in my painting. One of which I was

Resist.Acrylic on canvas | 11” x 14”Throughout the book of Peter, God calls us not to conform to our former evil desires, but instead to live wholly for Him. The four dark shadows crawling from behind symbolize the undesired evil company that so often linger in our lives. Turning away from those sinful desires that tempt each of us may not be easy. Yet, seeing that gleaming light above is a reminder that through God’s mercy, we have been born again. Therefore, it is vital to place our full trust in

The Path of an ExileDigital | 8"x10"A man has been freed from his shackles and looks out at the bright morning sun. However, he is notably separated from the procession of men who march northward, all of whom are masked in shadow. Rendered in gouache and fresco-style brushes, the rolling hills and winding path evoke a graphic sense of texture. While rays of sunlight streak across the scene, providing an impressionist quality that amplifies the contrast between freedom and the alienation of an

Into His Marvelous LightWatercolor, Gouache, & Watercolor Pencil | 15.75” x 29.75”The inspiration for my piece was 1 Peter 2:9, “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.” Life on earth is full of dark moments, shadows, trials and difficulties. We struggle with each other, we struggle with our selves, and we struggle with God. God calls us out of

The Holy PriesthoodAcrylic on canvas | 36” x 24”In the center of the painting, there is a small stone house (the holy priesthood) with its door open. Inside the house, you see two stone figures (living stones). One, shining with light, is washing the other man’s feet. Outside the house, there are four more living stones. On the left, a man is gently wiping away a woman’s tears. On the right, a woman is feeding soup to a sick man. They are grounded in their faith, making them like stones, but alive

Campfire ConversationsAcrylic on canvas | 14” x 11”I Peter writes about us being living stones built together into a spiritual house through Jesus. Using my familiar animals I paint with I was inspired to paint a scene with them discussing this scripture. I enjoyed painting the darks and lights caused by the campfire. It was also fun bringing in the personalities of Sully the frog and Ginger the hedgehog. Can you hear the crackling of the fire? The giggles from the gleaming eyes spying in the

The Art of Food - Roman interpretationEdible LovelinessAncient Roman Food is perhaps more familiar than we might think. In the Apicus, the oldest recorded Cookbook, we find many things we enjoy today, fruits and vegetables, stews, bread and so forth. Now there were some items that we don’t so much see today - like stuffed door mice and roasted flamingos. It is no doubt within the context of Peter’s ministry within the Roman Empire that being raised in Jewish culture and tradition that eating with

Falling FlowersOil on linen panel 12” x 16”Hurried feet rushing the train; look here, look there—stilettos all the rage; turn around—hiking boots the new vogue. Flurrying, fleeting change, but God’s word is enduring. Beautiful poppies, carefree, singing for a moment—seasons change, flowers fall. Peter quotes Isaiah as a reminder that the word of God is enduring, written some 700-800 years before Peter, but still true. “For all people are like grass, and their glory is like the flowers of the field;

ReflectionsWatercolor on Strathtmore, 400 series | 22 1/2” x 19”1 Peter 1:24-25, Peter uses the imagery of grass and flowers to convey a profound message about the nature of human life and the enduring nature of God’s Word, His promises and His faithfulness. This wintery snow scene is an image of a season of dormancy, which encourages mindful restfulness. It also represents the space to create more frequent opportunities to talk with God.

HOPEPaper, potograph, mirror | 24”x29”x6”Agamograph: an art form created by Yaacov Agam that uses optical illusions to create an image that shifts before the viewers’ eyes.As Victoria was planning for this year’s event, she was set on making an interactive book, until God gave her the idea of making an agamograph during a sermon on 1 Peter. The images in the piece focus on the hope we have in Jesus, even and especially in our brokenness. As such, the imperfections you see are not mistakes, but

Reflection of HopeAcrylic on canvasTide pools are full of all kinds of animals, plants, and shells. These bright and colorful creatures and plants are beautiful, but as you are busy looking at the bright red crab or the pretty shells, you might be missing out on something much more magnificent and glorious to behold. To make the blurry reflection of the castle that is our eternal hope clearer in our minds, we must focus on it. It’s ok to enjoy the sand dollars, but we should always remember where

Morning PrepFabric on canvas | 18”x24”To start out the day, we eat. Jesus got up early in the morning to pray. Christians are encouraged to start the day with God. Starting our day with scripture is “preparing our minds for action.” The figure in this collage shows someone starting their day “eating” from God’s word. The mind is fed, charged, renewed, ready for action whether from God, self or others. The day’s activity is best when it starts out by tasting and seeing that God is good. 1 Peter 1:13

Things Into Which Angels Long to LookOil on wood panel | 11” x 14”In this painting, an angel figure is standing before a door, containing the light of the message, desiring to step in, but forbidden. This image hopes to help put in perspective the importance and magnitude of the Gospel. For powerful, majestic beings like angels desire to know what has been revealed to us. I think that this word “long” does not quite fully grasp the degree to which angels feel this desire. The original word has

We Are RedeemedOil on canvas | 11” x 14”To redeem someone from something requires paying a ransom. See the Garden of Gethsemane now empty with only small remnants of what transpired when Jesus was taken captive. You feel the desolation as you see in the painting symbols of the treachery (thirty pieces of silver), the angry struggle of men (the sword), a shadowed angel looking on trying to understand why mankind is worth redeeming, and the empty cup symbolizing the ransom paid for all who believe

What Angels Long to SeePencil | 8"x12"“Concerning this salvation, the prophets who prophesied about the grace that was to be yours searched and inquired carefully, inquiring what person or time the Spirit of Christ in them was indicating when he predicted the sufferings of Christ and the subsequent glories. It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you, in the things that have now been announced to you through those who preached the good news to you by the Holy Spirit sent
