Hey y’all,

I’m Alex, I have been a lover of beauty my whole life. I’ve been painting for over 15 years as a way of connecting and listening to God. About 5 years ago I started studying another local NC artist and fell in love with impressionism. I love to paint florals, landscapes, and anything that reminds me of rural NC. I most often paint during nap time (I’m a mom of two), and it’s my way of escape and brings me great joy and rest. Every painting I complete has a verse written on the back. This verse is unique to the painting and is what I have prayed and mediated on as I created that unique piece of art.

“The journey homewards. Coming home. That's what it's all about. The journey to the coming of the Kingdom. That's probably the chief difference between the Christian and the secular artist--the purpose of the work, be it story or music or painting, is to further the coming of the kingdom, to make us aware of our status as children of God, and to turn our feet toward home.”
