my latest painting inspired by the "CRAZY LOVE" art project.
Lately I’ve been reflecting on how our relationships are at times reckless, for some destructive, fast paced, exhilarating, painful, sometimes rewarding, sometimes fulfilling, selfish, biter sweet, envious, unforgiving, judgmental, and even lonely.
But the love that Jesus has revealed to us is mind bending. For a great and powerful God to come down and humble himself to inter His creation so that us frail little created beings could be saved from our own inadequacies – is incomprehensible.
What kind of love looks beyond humanity’s faults and ugliness and reaches in to heal the self-destruction of an incredibly desperate created being? It’s crazy, it’s radical: A love that collides with a world that did not expect but so desperately needed love. Real love. I imagine it as an explosion of LOVE.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preserves."
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
