Desert Series 2021-2022

My Desert Series conveys the experience of walking with God through the “desert” and learning to live by His Word through trials and temptations. These pieces reflect my spiritual journey through the “deserts” of life. Each piece expresses a different aspect of the “desert” experience and includes a Hebrew word that relates to the title of each painting.
