Artist Statement

"Once, Picasso was asked what his paintings meant. He said, 'Do you ever know what the birds are singing? You don't, but you listen to them anyway. So, sometimes with art, it's important just to look.'" - Picasso. And I say when you see Scripture, it's important to listen and just believe.

 

In creating my art, I have one great purpose - to tell others about Jesus and proclaim the greatest news that could ever pass through anyone's ears: the Gospel. The Gospel is the good news that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on the cross for our sins and rose again from the dead, ultimately defeating death. So now there is no condemnation for those who believe in Him, but only eternal life and eternal joy. 

 

Wherever my art is, there will be Scripture also. My art is simply a vehicle for The Truth. The Lord gave me the gift to be an artist, and I want to share His Word and glorify Him through the talents He's given me and the desires He's placed in my heart (Psalm 37:4). 

​

I love drawing God’s creatures, especially His fine and delicate work of butterflies and cute little bugs. I love pairing the power of God’s Word with some of His smallest, weakest, and most humble creatures in the universe, for God's power is made perfect in weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9), and humility is the foundation of all virtues. Humility is at the heart of Christianity from which all other virtues flow. True love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control are all products of humility.

​

My hope is that when You look at my art, You read the Scripture. I pray that it plants a seed of truth in your heart that grows by God’s grace. 

​

I am not religious. I am saved by grace. My faith in Jesus is a gift. Love, Jenna
