ARTWORK
Green Sea Turtles are endangered. The follow the current of the ocean and feed on grass. Females trance out on the beach while laying eggs. This painting is 2 canvasses and the words "Jesus Draw Me Away" is written in the sea grasses.
This is an ocean wave reflecting the pink sunrise. I used molding medium to build the wave on canvas before I painted it.
This is the Lord beckoning all those who are ready and willing to come to the wedding of the Lamb. The religious people ignored the Lord's invite and so he invited the drug addicts, harlots and misfits, and they came!
This is the Ark of the Covenant with an angel/Seriph worshipping the One True God. Today you are the portable carrier of the Shekinah Presence of God within you.
This is a large canvas 52x40" approx. It has a gold bar in the middle of the 2 triangular canvasses. Clouds and gasses in space with stars and a large body streaming through it, create a sense of awe.
Currently displayed are the artwork of Deana Harvey, director of the Tree of Life Gallery in Roanoke, Indiana.
"I Won 3rd place prize for my plein aire painting Oct. 2012, judged by Charlie Shepherd of Ft. Wayne Museum of Art. Charlie Shepherd said, "Your art is very spiritual and mystical" of a landscape piece, oil on canvas. I am virtually unknown except in my own community. I found that the cost for entering contests and fees for such guilds is better off given to the poor. And that is where I'll stand forever probably. I started painting in high school. I quit for 15 or 20 years because I was working in secular jobs and couldn't do both. But now I have a job where I can paint with my clients. I love it. I love them. I now have so many paintings, I just don't know what to do with them. But it is a privilege to offer some here at the TREE OF LIFE GALLERY, and also for sale at the Firehouse Tea and Coffee Cafe', State St. next to RIB ROOM, in Ft. Wayne, IN. I have also listed paintings on Etsy." - Deana Harvey
