36"X48" Mixed Media on Canvas In the beginning God’s Spirit covered the darkness that was and spoke light into existence. If He covered and spoke something into existence that wasn’t there before - and He is still the same God - then imagine what He can speak into being in our personal world and the world at large? Do you believe? I NEED to… There’s hope in belief. We can all use a dose of hope. Covered. AVAILABLE! Click below to contact Amárillys.

Diptych 12"x36" (each panel) GRACE. A word that some choose to use as some sort of magical bandaid to cover unbecoming acts. In my life I have found GRACE to be a much more powerful word. To me, grace is divine (yes, God-given) empowerment that is reflected in the way I live my life. An empowerment that daily inspires as well as strengthens in tough times. I am so thankful for this kind of Grace. I need it. AVAILABLE! Click below to contact for details.

14"x18" Mixed Media on Canvas "The term used when you want to emphasize the hopeful side of a situation that might seem gloomy on the surface." Life rarely throws at us exactly what we expect how we expect it. We think we are headed in a direction, within a timeframe, with specific people, etc... and then the details of your path change. But, I believe, within the ebbs and flows of life a silver lining is almost always present... if we are willing to look for it.

12"x12" Mixed Media on Canvas “The budding vines of new life are now blooming everywhere. The fragrance of their flowers whispers, “There is change in the air.” Songs 2:13 I love Spring.

A few days after our son, Gabriel’s tragic plane crash, a beautiful friend saw a vision over my family. This is my interpretation of the vision on canvas. My hope is it speaks “GRACE, GRACE” over your heart. The God who has carried my family, and continues to daily carry us, is the same God who will carry YOU now. Nothing, absolutely NOTHING is impossible with Him. May He rain His amazing, perfect GRACE over you as He covers you under the protective canopy of His wings.

I believe angels have been sent out on assignment to protect, guard, and guide each one of us. This, unfortunately, doesn't mean that life will be perfect and pain-free. Only heaven understands the fullness of our stories. From my deeply painful and beautifully joyful experiences I believe this is one way God uses to let us know He is always near... He doesn't miss a thing... and He is watching over us. His angels are WATCHING OVER US and ready to battle on our behalf at His command! Psalm 91

He is universally recognized as the King of the jungle and his image evokes a sense of royalty. He is majestic and powerful, terrifying and mesmerizing, all at once! His roar is distinct and unlike any other creature. His vocal cords are uniquely designed to ensure when you hear his voice there is no doubt the King is present. I believe everyone - regardless of race, gender, nationality or economic status - has these traits within them. You were designed for royalty.

Out of mud and the murkiest waters grows this stunning flower that demands the attention of all who come across it. This painting represents a life that rises above the muck life throws at it and conquers the mountains set before them. Resilient and beautiful... LOTUS TREASURE.

This piece was inspired by the process of a grounded caterpillar profoundly changing into a completely different organism - a butterfly - that is able to effortlessly spread its wings and take flight. Empowered to soar into the future knowing that all that kept it grounded has melted away and is now just a part of its story that unveils its true identity giving this once-caterpillar the ability to soar to new heights. IN FLIGHT.
