Artist Statement

|
All things come to an end…and at some point in time… our very own mortal existence. Only one thing remains forever…the Eternal state of our soul.
Icons portray those who are already in that place of existence… dwelling in the unseen spiritual world…. and while they peer through the veil that divides the material and spiritual realms, they cheer us on and pray for us until it comes time for us to join them.
It is my prayer that with God’s gift of being an artist, and the sacred task of writing (painting) icons He has graced me to do, I can lead one to become aware of the place of Eternal existence ……where those who have gone before us await our souls until the time comes when we pass from mortality to the spiritual realm .
