I wanted to share with our Creatives Arise community that my artwork 'Emmanuel - God with Us' has just been recognized with the SPECIAL FEATURED ARTIST of DISTINCTION AWARD on Fine Art America! I'm humbled and honored to be selected. I hope you all take a look and enjoy the painting! This soulful painting portrays Jesus standing serenely behind a young, tearful child, gently reassuring him with His enduring love, peace, and comfort. The boy cradles a small lamb—an emblem of the saving grace found in the sacrifice of the Lamb of God. Fully embodying both humanity and Divinity, Jesus understands the struggles we face in this world. Surrounded by an ornate 'gold simulated frame', the image evokes reverence and Divine authority, beautifully capturing the heart of our Savior.

✨We’ve grown so quickly over the last couple of weeks — it’s amazing to see so many Christian creatives gathering here from all over the world - look at the map! Creatives Arise is a healthier, quieter, more intentional space than Facebook… a place to grow spiritually, creatively, and prophetically without all the noise. 👇 Today I’d love to hear from you:What creative gift has God placed inside you?Are you a writer, painter, musician, photographer, dancer, or something else entirely?
