Dana's Christmas Present

My sister asked me if I would do a painting for her for Christmas that shows the way that she's. Been carried through recent trials by her friends. I thought that the Sweetwater rescue was an appropriate way to symbolize that.

2 more angels

I have been working hard on these drawings for the families of Clay Card and Danae Gough.

Jorden Miller

This drawing in some ways has been the highlight of my artistic pursuits, but it came at such a hard time, it almost doesn't feel right to say that. 1 Week ago, 4 of the youth in Magrath were tragically killed in a car accident. A lady we go to church with contacted me and asked me if I would be able to draw a picture of one of the girls with the Savior as a gift for the parents, to help them cope with the loss of their daughter. I have to say that I think it is probably the best I have ever drawn. The crazy thing, though, is that I hardly had to erase anything. I felt like I was watching God use my hands to create this visual message for two of his children that were hurting so bad for the loss of one of theirs. I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to be his hands. I love this drawing.

Mandee"s Christmas Present

This has been done for a long time now, but I'm just now getting around to posting it. Mandee told me that for Christmas last year she wanted me to paint her a picture that showed Christ's love for his children, and this was the result. it's called The Living Water, The Bread of Life.



Landscape Paintings

I decided to give landscape painting a try...and loved it. This was a photograph taken by a friend that I though would make a great painting.

Christmas Presents

Although they've been done for a while, i haven't been able to post these because they were presents for some of mandee's family. (it seems like most of our presents this year were "art gifts")


this one was a combination of a few different paintings of Christ with a lamb for Mandee's Grandma Sabey.



this one was for Mandee's mom, she loves barnwood and has it all over her house, so i tried a new style of painting, i REALLY like the way it turned out!
