| This is my first post. My name is John and I am a Catholic artist in Omaha, NE. I am part of a group of local artists who show their work at The Sacred Art Show www.SacredArtShow.com. I started painting a series of watercolor paintings of the Holy Rosary. My first painting was The Annunciation and that was my 'yes' to sacred art. I was praying the Rosary and taking bible study classes by Jeff Cavins and by Scott Hahn at Ignatius Press. The study brought richness and meaning to my Catholic faith an inspired me to read scripture related to each mystery. I incorporated the scripture studies to build 'threads' for each mystery in the Joyful and Luminous. You can download the scripture studies and see the paintings (and other Catholic and Christian artists work) at www.TheArtisticVocation.com. I am seeking Catholic and Christian artists to display their work that is good, true, and beautiful. I believe people can deepen their faith through Catholic and Christian art. It begins a conversation about our love for Jesus Christ. |
I especially like the first work. Reminds me of Gustav Moreau. Watercolours are a beautiful medium
