What have I been up to lately?

Winter/Spring 2023

My most recent artwork of note

has been poetry, combined with 

and accompanied by visual arts,

created around a theme, for the

purpose of presenting in events

fostering faith and community. 

Rooted In Scripture retreat of 

Redeemer Presbyterian Church

Renaissance Night art salon on "Envy" from Church of the City 

Open Art Night with OneCo

Sketching the attendees, performers, scripture, questions and answers of the evening. Read a poem about contemplating, resisting, overcoming and healing from "Envy" - our theme of the evening.

I continue to submit short stories and poetry for the creative writing challenges online via Vocal.media 

presumably for the opportunity to win financial prizes, but more so because it provides me with the perfect kind of writing prompt... 

specific yet open-ended, tied to a solid yet low-pressure deadline. The work is often rushed to finish, but that's proved a helpful exercise to generate both writing and art.
