Art in the Sanctuary

SteevieJane Parks
Being an Artist is intrinsic to everything that I am, and everything that I do. I almost always paint intuitively. I start by creating large areas of complimentary colors and then I gradually delineate abstract shapes and try to integrate the colors and shapes into a coherent painting that conveys either an emotional or spiritual message (or both). My philosophy about Abstract Art is that people will see whatever they need to see to heal themselves. Everyone will see something slightly different, and that is as it should be. I am a strong believer in the power of Art to heal the mind, heart and the spirit. The simple act of painting has always helped me to feel more authentically and positively connected to my thoughts and feelings. My hope is that you, the viewer will find something healing and emotionally meaningful in some of my paintings. I am drawn to bright colors and neutral colors in combination, and love to play with the idea of harmonizing colors that might initially conflict with one another. Working with color both stimulates and calms me at the same time, and I hope that my paintings will both stimulate and calm those who see them. If you are interested in purchasing any of the paintings that you see behind Thom, or just want to see more of my current work, you can visit my website at steeviejaneparks.com or you can call me directly at 919-918-1014. |
