Custom Art & Ministry Experiences

Bring your theme to life through fine art.

You bring the theme. I help bring it to life through fine art.

That might be one original painting, a series, a curated art display, or live painting during the gathering. We begin with your Scripture, theme, and what you hope people will experience.

Art is another language

Art can help people see, feel, and remember the message in a different way.

I believe fine art can come alongside Scripture, worship, and teaching to create space for people to pause, reflect, pray, and listen. It does not replace the Word or the message. It gives people another visual language through which to engage with it.

Three ways we can work together

You bring the theme. We decide what kind of art will serve it best.

Start with one painting, build a visual art experience, or invite me to paint live during the gathering.

01

Create a Painting

I create one original painting, or a small series, specifically around your theme, Scripture, event, or ministry focus.

  • One custom original painting
  • A connected series of paintings
  • Created before the event or gathering

02

Create an Art Experience

We use existing artwork, newly created work, or both to build a meaningful visual experience around the gathering.

  • Curated displays and installations
  • Scripture or reflection stations
  • Conference, retreat, worship, or gala environments

Paint Live at the Gathering

I paint during worship, a conference, retreat, gala, or ministry event, creating a work connected to the theme of the gathering.

  • Live worship painting
  • Conference and retreat collaboration
  • Galas, fundraisers, and special events

How it works

You do not need to know what the art should look like yet.

Tell me the theme, Scripture, event, and what you hope people will take away. We can work out the art from there.

1

Tell me what you’re planning.

Share the gathering, theme, Scripture, date, location, audience, and anything already taking shape.

2

We decide what fits.

One painting, several works, a display, or live painting. We choose the approach that best fits the gathering.

3

The art is created.

Once the scope is clear, I create or curate the artwork and coordinate the practical details with your team.

4

Bring it into the gathering.

The artwork is displayed, installed, revealed, or painted live as part of the event experience.

Every collaboration is unique. Projects are quoted individually based on artwork, scope, timeline, travel, shipping, installation, and the needs of the gathering.

A history of collaboration

This has been part of my ministry for years.

I have had the privilege of creating with ministries and organizations in many different settings. A few examples show how different each collaboration can become.

Time to Revive

Live painting and a 66-work Bible project

From live worship painting in the United States and abroad to creating one painting for every book of the Bible during reviveSCHOOL, this collaboration helped shape the ministry side of my art.

Presence Creative Arts

A commissioned three-part event series

I created a large-scale three-part painting project for the Alliance Canada Annual Assembly. The originals were displayed at the gathering and the artwork became part of the visual environment on stage.

Entourage Ministries

A Behold Him women’s conference

The artwork became part of a larger gathering centered on Jesus, worship, the Word, and a visual invitation to behold Him.

America Reads the Bible

66 paintings gathered around the public reading of Scripture

The complete 66-Book Bible Art Collection was displayed in Washington, D.C. during the America Reads the Bible gathering at the Museum of the Bible.

Start a conversation

Tell me about your gathering.

If you have a theme, Scripture, event, or idea beginning to take shape, send me what you know. It is completely fine if the creative direction is not clear yet.

I would rather begin with the heart of what you are building and explore from there.

Custom Art & Ministry Experiences

Let the art serve the story you are already carrying.

Whether the right expression is one painting, a series, a visual journey, or something created live in the room, the goal is the same: to make space for beauty, Scripture, reflection, and a meaningful encounter with what your gathering is centered on.
