Horizons magazine article

Horizons July/August 2010

This is a painting that I did years ago for Avera McKennan about the Seasons, and the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit.  (To read more about the painting itself and where it's displayed, take a look at the Avera McKennan website.)  The purpose of this triptych artwork was to bring a healing spirit and hope to patients in their facility.

The Louisville-based magazine, Horizons,  in their most recent issue, July/August 2010, focused on "Spirituality and the Arts."   They  featured this painting on the cover image and ran an article about artists that deal with spiritual topics in their work.  I'm glad to see that they appreciate my art in Kentucky.  : )  (Click on the images to enlarge and to read the article.)

  1. Eyob, my mother, Evelyn goes to Our Saviou's Lutheran Church, and we have been viewing the progress. What a bounty it is to have this amazing work in Sioux Falls. The residents of this town, and especially the members of Our Savior's are to be very proud to have such a tribute to the Mystery up above Thank you for sharing your talents. You are very blessed with the talent God has given to you. Thank you for sharing this talent. The work is also so amazing showing the birds of the hearts of mankind - our souls fly up to God, to the Mystery up above - and they are happy birds/souls. You have shown us something beautiful about our human spirit. Thank you, Eyob.
