To be honest, I actually didn’t see any point in my artistic talent for most of my life. I am very purpose driven, intentional person and used to think my time was invested more wisely if I loved on some people in the streets and prayed for the sick rather than spending a couple of hours on a painting. So that’s what I did most of my teenage years. I focused on street evangelism, preaching and activating believers in the supernatural. I also played in worship bands and mad e music on the streets, but I still didn’t have any value for visual arts whatsoever. In my first year at School of Ministry I was asked to do a prophetic painting on a missions trip. I got a vision from the Lord, painted it and felt that it was a gift for the local youth pastor. After I finished the painting live on stage I was amazed by the response of the congregation. People came up to me even the day after and told me they had had dreams about my painting and God’s been speaking to them through it. I couldn’t believe it. The real surprise however hit me a couple of weeks later when I got an email from the youth pastor in which he told me how seriously encouraged he was feeling every time he took a look at that painting. After a few more encounters like this one, I began to realize that there’s a power in visual arts to communicate a message better than I could do using only words. It’s always been about the message for me. So when I realized that, I was sold. I began the journey of trying to find the right medium that would help me express myself the best.
