Join me each Friday during Advent for a live contemplative art practice. You are invited to create your own art along with me or simply allow my creative process to be a focus of contemplation and slowing for you.
Check back each week and watch the gallery grow…
The 4-Day Mindful Advent Challenge
Looking for a meaningful way to observe Advent? Sign up for our daily Advent devotionals, featuring contemplative spiritual art and mindful sketching, to center your heart and spirit.
I had the joy of being a guest on the Pivot Podcast where we talked about spiritual practices for Advent.
Enjoy this Virtual Advent Wreath. This download contains 2 PowerPoint presentations: 1 in Widescreen format and 1 in 4×3 format. Each slide lights the next Advent Candle. The download also includes a .zip file of all the images in .jpg format to be used in whatever presentation software you prefer.
This is a labor of love. You can purchase this for free or pay as much as you want as a donation to the ongoing production of these visual materials. Feel free to use this presentation for your preaching, teaching, or personal study.
During Advent 2023 I decided to do an experiment. Each Tuesday evening at 7:00pm CST I hosted a livestream event. The objective was to create an original piece of art from scratch during the livestream that was a contemplative reflection on the theme of each week: Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love.
It was a fun experiment. I learned a great deal on the technical side about how to use restream to multicast to Facebook and YouTube.
I invite you to enjoy the YouTube playlist below. Perhaps you need to take a little breath today. Turn on one of the videos. Get comfortable. Enjoy the soft music in the background. Reflect on the meaning of this season.
Below are the four pieces that I created during the sessions. They were painted in Photoshop, using a Wacom Cintiq 16 Digital Pen Display. Enjoy!
