Faith the size of a mustard seed



Painting for my sister-in-law's mother. Top left is the scripture verse, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." Matthew 17:20

Painting is still wet so it looks shiney, and once again, my camera takes really crappy photos. So Just use your imagination :)

Things aren't always what they seem #2 Recycling shark


Recycling Shark
Everyone can do their part!
Sharks are often viewed as destructive, dangerous animals. I thought it would be ironic showing the "environmentally friendly" side of the shark. He may not care who's family he eats, but he sorts through the paper and plastic!

"Things aren't always what they seem" series Painting #1

The paint is still wet so the balloon is a little shiney in this picture. I have been listening to so many people debate over politics recently. Everytime I hear two people argue I am baffled by how they seem to view the other side as "Idiotic" or "Evil". This inspired me to do a series titled "Things aren't always what they seem". I am going to use animals with bad reputations showing their soft side, as well as, animals with good reps showing a more... devious side. So this scorpion is my jumping off point.
