I was fortunate to go to my very first Prophetic Art Conference at Ffald-y-brenin on the Pembrokeshire Coast in September.
Learnt lots, "Stood on tiptoes" to hear from God, met some amazingly creative people in an incredibly beautiful valley, and finished the day with pink fizz and lots of laughter at the The Golden Lion in Newport.
My first 'dabbling' with my new found gift/skill/toy was at a friend's 24 hour prayer space in St Neots, a little market town by the river Camb.
"Go with it", "Try it out", "Nothing is too silly to paint" all rush to mind as you fight the need to create a perfect painting, and instead endeavour to grasp on paper a concept from the Almighty (or your own imagination). It seems that both are worthy of the time and effort if the person or people who see the art pulled together are benefitted and encouraged by it. Happy Days.
Be Transformed by the Renewing of your Mind was the scripture that sprang to mind as I 'listened' for a word from Heaven for the prayer room... so here it is, along with some pictures from the prayer space, and some pictures of Newport, and the cross at Ffald-y-brenin xxx
I wanted some inspiration to create something really unique. I visited one of our Fair Trade suppliers in Richmond, they are based in a unit within the grounds of a huge London town house. We walked through the long lawned gardens of the house and went through a little gate in the wall to go out for lunch (the first time I have been out for Polish food - it was fabulous!) There is a huge blossom tree in the centre of the garden, which actually reaches the entire width and into the adjacent garden. I took a few pictures and was able to base my family tree on this beauty! Rumour has it, The Archers was originally thought up in this very garden.
