Simplicity

John 1 verse 5.........The Life-Light blazed out of the darkness; the darkness couldn't put it out.
From the Message version of the bible.

I can't believe a whole year has gone by leading Art Worship at Bayside Church, yet here I am writing up the events of Vision Weekend for 2015. With Simplicity as the theme, this year we had Art Worship running across all three services, that's Saturday evening and Sunday morning at the Cheltenham campus, and Sunday morning at the Frankston campus.

Funnily enough, 'Simplicity' turned out to be quite complicated in terms of planning and preparing the canvases prior to the services. Time is always a constraint during Art Worship, and many of the processes used to create the finished art works shown here are impossible to do during live Worship. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise as the prep time enabled artists to come together, sharing heart and vision........beautiful!

Live Art Worship Collaboration Creation

Another live Art Worship collaboration; one canvas, two artists and around 30 minutes of time during acoustic worship at Bayside Church. Credit goes to Ross Guiderman for of course the art, but also for all the ducking and diving without treading on my toes! Hopefully these pics show the progression of the piece.
Colour Palette for Art Worship October 2014
I begin....... a pre-painted canvas, feeling quite vulnerable but fired with energy and emotional intent.
Rhythm, pools of coloured light and emerging balance.....
Ross and yours truly in the 'zone'. Loving the neon pink on the palette knife!
Beginning to take shape.

The final piece looking like an impressionistic garden of Eden where celestial wings beat!

 

Tactile; Healing in the Power of Touch


Father's Heart Impasto, acrylic, silver, gold and copper leaf on canvas.

A muted colour palette with bronze, gold and silverleaf, a highly textural canvas speak of a timeless love that echoes through eternity.
