- “Whether it’s a pebble in a riverbed or a soaring mountain peak, I see everything in the world as the handiwork of the Lord. When I paint, I try to represent the beauty of God’s creation in my art.

Because I see God’s peacefulness, serenity, and contentment, I work to capture those feelings on the canvas. My vision of God defines my vision of the world.” ~ Thomas Kinkade , Beautiful lines quotes
