Painted Prayers Project

He said:

My amazing wife! It is so cool to see her in her flow state when she’s doing these. These paintings — and the process — extract you from logic and intellect and remind you that we are emotional and spiritual beings. I’ve had the awesome opportunity to be witness to and to be involved in a handful of these and let me tell you, this is no wine and canvas experience. This may only be one entry on this page but Painted Prayers is so much bigger and significant than Grit & Grace. 

She said:

This project sort of started by accident. I’ve been creating 100 Painted Prayers, all mostly abstract, all very heartfelt. Lots of tears and all the feels going into these paintings. Each one has a written prayer that goes with it, but the entire process is a prayer, really. I’ve been amazed to see how this project has affected both myself and others since I began two years ago!
