collaboration with the Master Artist

as i continued painting the other night (stayed up 'til midnight 'cause i got so lost in the process), i found myself going in and out of asking things of God and then trying to quiet my mind so i could listen {which is most of the time easier said than done for this girl}.....the painting process helps with that. i think that's why it has become such a huge part of my faith journey....because through the paint, He speaks to me....in a way that He never could before...though images in the paint, through visions, through music i have playing....they are all intertwined. they all come together to spur that back and forth between He and I, as we collaborate inside the process.
