"Only those who look with the eyes of children can lose themselves in the object of their wonder."

Eberhard Arnold

Spring Flowers
Alondra, Age 8

For it was you who formed my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; that I know very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes beheld my unformed substance. In your book were written all the days that were formed for me, when none of them as yet existed.  

Pslam 139:13-16

Paper Weaving

See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;

You are worthy, O Lord our God, to receive glory and honor and power. For you created all things, and they exist because you created what you pleased.
Revelation 4:11


Our God is the Master artist. He uses color (experiences) and different textures (people) in our lives to mold us into the person He wants us to be.

Creatively Made in HIS Image

But now, O Lord, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hand.  Isaiah 64:8

In my opinion, 2nd grade produces some of the best art work.......

"As Christians we know why a work of art has value. Why? First, because a work of art is a work of creativity, and creativity has value because God is the Creator. The first sentence in the Bible declares "In the beginning God created the heaves and the earth". Second, an art work has value as a creation because human beings are made in the image of God, and therefore we not only can love and feel emotion, but we also have the capacity to create. In fact it is part of the image of God to be creative, or to have creativity. We never find an animal, non-human, making a work of art. On the other hand, we never find people anywhere in the world or in any culture in the world who do not product art. Creativity is intrinsic to our humanness." ---Francis A Schaeffer from "Some Perspectives on Art"
