Sacred Sunday



The place: New Orleans

The reason: Women in ministry conference

When: March 2011

Workshop: expressing ourselves

A creative workshop in which we expressed a spiritual event in our lives with pens and fabric on fabric. Then the squares were sown together to produce paraments to decorate our "altar" for our final worship service.

Sunflower



Time to announce the up-coming Sunflower Festival in downtown Guymon the first weekend in June. The streets are lined with banners. The one you see here is by artist/art teacher Kristy Patterson. It should fetch a good price during the auction. Kristy is always up to something interesting artistically. Check out her latest work on her blog: http://flyingshoesstudio.blogspot.com/

Sacred Sunday



What could be more sacred in the landscape of a Christian based country than a church steeple. I can't name the church, and I'm not even sure of the location: maybe Savannah or Charleston. But the Christian church was established on the east coast of the USA early in the history of the country. The image just grabbed me; I was in the right position at the right time and so I pointed and shot. I like the angle of the steeple and its color against the contrast of the blue of the sky.

Blue



I'll be taking a pilgrimage to England in the fall to the Sarum College in Salisbury. Here is a sample of art work on display now in its gallery. Woman in Blue by Ian Gaskell.
