My name is Kim Carlton. I am a Christian and a wife and a mother. I am a writer and a painter.
My blog is dedicated to sharing the paintings and writings about art that spring forth from a life dedicated to God, that is, my life.
Isaiah 60:1 Arise! Shine! For your light arrives! The splendor of the LORD shines on you!
Ephesians 5:14 For anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says, “Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
Psalm 97:11 LIGHT is sown for the righteous, and JOY for the upright in heart.
John 15:11 These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.~~~~~~ Paint the Light; PAINT YOUR JOY.
Eve's decision was whether to eat the fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, or obey God and get to live in the Garden of Eden. This painting tries to capture the very moment that she has decided and begins to turn away from God. I wanted to include every flower that I would miss, and I tried to make it look like the flowers would miss Eve, too. I'm so glad that there are flowers outside of the Garden of Eden! Of course we have to tend them and protect them and pull the weeds that want to choke them. I imagine that there were no weeds in Eden and that the light was soft and filtered, and I tried to paint it so. I believe that at this moment, Eve thought she had made a good decision.
