I'm a warrior for light.

It's when I let myself get little that I tumble head over heels into joy.

Our most important legacy will be the contributions we make to the lives of other human beings.

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. Many modern painters see the world as a jumble of random lines and shapes with no divine beauty or order, and their works reflect their viewpoint. 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.

The concept that an artist would be revered by popular culture is an immediate dismissal of his relevance as an artist.

A piece of art is a compact form of the universe.

Beautiful objects, ideas, even beautiful people all share the power to lift the spirits and motivate creativity while at the same time soothing the soul.
