...November Newsletter...
"The Sounds of Thunder"
Job 37:5 "God thundereth marvellously with his voice, great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend."

I was inspired to do this painting from having a vision of white horses.  I wanted to have them galloping across a field and make the setting autumn since we are still in that season.  I was going to put a black horse at the lead where I put the dark brown horse  but I thought the black horse would stand out too much.  I didn't want it to take away from the white horses.  The horses are running free and wild.

The big tree at the left of the canvas is a bright autumn tree and the blue in the hills that are in the distance compliment the orange that is in the big tree.

"The Praying Hands"
I Timothy 2:8 "I will therefore that men pray everywhere, lifting up Holy hands, without wrath and doubting."

I had painted an artwork of Jesus called "The Hands and Feet" and wanted to do more with hands since the Lord showed me hands in a vision.  I have always liked the painting of Praying Hands and wanted to do it myself.  I put red, blue and purple in the background and used some white also as well as the flesh tone for the hands in this painting.
 
At the art & craft show at the church on the 7th and 8th of November a lady asked me if I had a painting of a Lion and Lamb and I said I did not but I will do one.  I told her I do commission paintings but she said she  could not buy one right now.

I have another painting on my easel which will be another autumn scene and landscape.  It will have the bright colors of autumn trees in it as well as water.  

I donated "The Burning Bush" painting as well as "The Guardian Angel to the church, Glory of Zion located here in Denton.   
 
Hope everyone is getting ready for the holidays.  I enjoy both holidays and really like Christmas the best.  I enjoy decorating the house as well as a Christmas tree.
