The best part of knowing how to do something is sharing how to do it with those who wish to learn. I am so very proud that this teaching resulted in a beautiful dining set being brought out of years of storage and infused with the time, energy, recovering, repairing legs, sanding, removing veneer, stenciling, staining, varnishing and finally polishing to a one of a kind treasure while retaining childhood memories that money cannot buy or new can be replace. Lori I am so pleased and proud for you and of you! You did an exceptional thing! Thank you for being bold with me to create this design. Wanna see the way before photos?!

There she stood. Alone in the corner. No one seemed to want her as her top was covered in dust and linoleum. What? Linoleum? Yes. A hearty little girl she was but she needed a home. We paid the $20 for her and tossed her in the trunk... I worked with what she was. Her scars told an old story that I did not want erased. Just eased. she was stained. Dirty With a Cheap vinyl top. So I Eliza Doolittle'd her with a good scrubbing, vintage traveled stickered her face and as well as gave her a new paint job. We love her. She serves us very well and is an excellent remote holder.

If you let it.

It is a basic premise. Stated best in Ecclesiastes 3 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth? I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it. He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end. I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life. And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God. which sums it up perfectly. All else is moot.

Thank you for the request to hear me. Because I was born an ambidextrous-ed brained artist, I have found the gift in creating in every single step I have taken on my path. I refer to it as “art on and beyond the canvas”. I paint. I create. I house flip. I putter. I potter. In the house. Outside the house. I rehab furniture. I make new furniture. I crochet. I macrame. I fish. I cook. I bake. I can. I landscape. I organize. I compartmentalize. I teach. I am taught. I design homes. I design utility power grids. I understand colors. I understand solar stations and wind power. I write poetry. I see life as poetry. I read. I write. And I blog these things now. This list is but a few. But none of these are outlets. They are just the exhales of my soul inhaling Gods goodness. I am an artist. I am Denise Renee. This is just who I am. shameless plug here….

This is Windows 6, Healing. From the heavens above to the earth beneath, the Windows give light and reveal what is beyond through the glass. Psalm 139: 17 How precious to me are your thoughts,[a] God! How vast is the sum of them! 18 Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand—when I awake, I am still with you. Ezekiel 34:26 And I will make them and the places round about My hill a blessing, and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing. The heavens over our head is a big stretch of Gods prophetic creativity to show case some of His principles in dealing with mans need of His presence. How excellent is thy name in all the earth , who has set thy glory above the heavens. He has also set windows in the heavens just above every human settlement in all nations and through these windows he pours His blessings. The steps are a prophetic picture of our ways and steps as we traverse the upward way in our journey from earth to heaven Many times before He sends the full showers of His blessing of revival He takes time to deal with our ways and steps. He pours us His spirit with His voice asking us to mend our ways and prove Him if He will not open the windows of heaven and pour us the fullness of His blessings. May be the bubbles are a reflection of our modern thoughts with soapy water as a cleansing agent. It looks like a call to tell the church to repent and come under these mercy drops as we prepare for the great outpouring of the Latter rain. Like the Lord is preparing us for some big time major outpouring of His Spirit. He is coming gently dealing with us personally and closely , filling up all cracks and mending every step we have taken wrongly and fixing a sure ground for a new journey and it will soon be an abundance of rain. We can Cry out as we pray O! come Great Spirit Come." Pastor Ameh Amana.

This is the second in a series of five CROWN paintings I have been tasked to create under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. This one is called YHVH and has a distinct message. A message it seems to the Jewish people from the Holy Spirit with this painting called YHVH according to John 19:19 comes the statement "JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS” via the vessel of this Catholic child of God. This painting was to have an extreme aged effect just as the message of Christ was decreed ages ago. The message is that the “Messiah is clearly affirmed and understood that Yeshua is indeed none other than YHVH come in the flesh”. The base of the this second crown painting is of the wooden crucifixion cross banded by the blood of Jesus. Even then the man, Pontious Pilate, who placated the crowd and condemned Christ, recognized Him as the true King of the Jews. My fellow brethren it is time to be enveloped in the Light of Christ, God of Abraham in the flesh. The common denominator is the crucifixion.

To make no bones about something means to say something in a way that leaves no doubt, or to have no objection to it. This is the third in the Crown Series. It is an oil of a Crown of Bone immersed in Blood. While on earth, the life of the first creation is in the blood. The marrow in the cavities of the bones produces blood platelets to aid in blood clotting, red blood cells for carrying oxygen, and white blood cells for combating infection and sustaining mortal life. But the mortal life cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. But eternal life is imputed to us through the ‘spirit of life in Christ Jesus’. No longer will our life-force be in the blood but our life will be in the power of the eternal Spirit. And at first, I thought it to be of our communion with the body and blood of Christ. As I assumed it to be going that way and followed along, the artist block happened to it and it needed to sit a spell. And when I put away my assumptions, the oil began to flow again. Ezekiel 37:1 Then he said to me: “Son of man, these bones are the people of Israel. Ezekiel was granted a vision of the valley of dry bones after God had directed him to prophesy the rebirth of Israel. Ez 37:14 "I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the Lord have spoken, and I have done it, declares the Lord.’” This promise is seemingly impossible in light of Israel’s present condition. Divided and dispersed for so long that unification and restoration seems impossible. Yet... "This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins." Matthew 26. And yes... Proverbs 15:30 The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, and good news refreshes the bones.The common denominator is blood.

This is the fourth in the Crown Series and is called Crown of Glass and Pearls. Interesting that the common denominator is sand. From Revelations comes verse 4:6 0ut from the throne come flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder And there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God; and before the throne there was something like a sea of glass, like crystal; and in the center and around the throne, four living creatures full of eyes in front and behind. And verse 21:21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; each one of the gates was a single pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.

Air. Cannot live without it. Before ventilation, respirators and other early warning detectors canaries were caged and hung in coal mines to warn of imminent air quality deterioration. The canary in the coal mine is always the first to go, whether in reality or in metaphor. This is the fifth in the Crown Series and is called "the Air I Breathe". It was created in oil on a gallery wrapped 20"x20" canvas. A crown of fire in the celestial heavens. As with the other four crown paintings, this one has a commonality and that is air. It takes oxygen for fire to burn. there is no oxygen in outer space, as far I have heard. And the canary, perched on a burning piece of coal, was used an early warning system for those working underground in the mines. The Hollies sang called The Air That I Breathe...all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you In the beginning Genesis 2:7 Then the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature. And Job 33:4 The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life. Ezekiel 37:4-14 Again He said to me, "Prophesy over these bones and say to them, 'O dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.' "Thus says the Lord GOD to these bones, 'Behold, I will cause breath to enter you that you may come to life. 'I will put sinews on you, make flesh grow back on you, cover you with skin and put breath in you that you may come alive; and you will know that I am the LORD.'" So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, a rattling; and the bones came together, bone to its bone. And I looked, and behold, sinews were on them, and flesh grew and skin covered them; but there was no breath in them. Then He said to me, "Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these slain, that they come to life."'" So I prophesied as He commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they came to life and stood on their feet, an exceedingly great army. Then He said to me, "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; behold, they say, 'Our bones are dried up and our hope has perished We are completely cut off.' "Therefore prophesy and say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I will open your graves and cause you to come up out of your graves, My people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel. "Then you will know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves and caused you to come up out of your graves, My people. "I will put My Spirit within you and you will come to life, and I will place you on your own land. Then you will know that I, the LORD, have spoken and done it," declares the LORD.'" The common denominator is oxygen.

This is commissioned painting called Make A Wish. This is third in the Remnant Series. A hard scrabble life as in Psalms 34:6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard, And saved him out of all his troubles. But when the nights are warm, the cotton is high, everything is possible. Go ahead...Make A Wish because Psalm 37:4 says, “Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.”

Its everything.

You ARE special! And so am I because we were each designed by God Himself and He doesn’t make junk or depend on luck! And you know what else? You were DESIGNED to be born in this time and in this place with these joys and trouble because you are the only one who can appreciate them and make a difference. i saw a celebrity quote today on that we are lucky we were born considering the magnitude of the universe and I thought awwww how sad that this man doesn’t know that God Himself part lpicked him down to the hairs on his head! Luke 12:7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrow. And when you get lost or lonely or sad or disappointed know this... Jesus is with you...Deuteronomy 31: 6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” You are His 1 in 99 ❤️ No not by luck. You ARE more than one in a billion stars. To God. To us. Thanks for coming. Thanks for staying. But as far as existing again eternally in paradise? That up to you. Going to Heaven is a choice only you can make. That choice is whether we will accept Jesus Christ, God’s one and only Son, as our Savior and Lord.

Psalm 42:7 Deep calls to deep at the sound of Your waterfalls; All Your breakers and Your waves have rolled over me. The starfish. The pansies. Holding a pearl and laying together in the waves. Pansies, coming from the French word pensée, meaning thoughts, so named because of the pansy's habit of hanging its head as if in a pensive or thoughtful mood. "There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance; pray, love, remember: and there is pansies. That’s for thoughts...". Shakespeare This is called Wave. A 20x24 oil on gallery canvas and presented itself as I prayed. "For the LORD is a great God...The sea is His, and He made it." Psalm 95:3 and 5 There is the legend of the starfish that tells of a child being observed returning stranded starfish back to the sea, one after another. He was asked “do you really think that what you are doing is going to make a difference?" The boy looked down at a starfish by his feet, picked one up and as he gently tossed it back into the ocean, he said, "It makes a difference to that one”. It all matters. Where and what you eat. What you do. Where you go. What you say. To you. To others. Go ahead and be the one. Take the good farther. Love more. Why? You matter! To God. To many. And know that it is a given that as your "pearl-ness" is being roughed up and re-smoothed out that you are protected. So go with Gods flow and I will meet up with you on the other side. Blessings till then.
