About Me

You can get copies of my art at Lenora.ImageKind.com .

Note: Please consider subscribing to my blog. I update it about once or twice a week with original artwork.

I like to create artwork. I sometimes write lessons to help other people unleash their own creativity.

I believe in absolutes.

I believe that man's natural state is condemnation--you only have to break one of a perfect God's laws to be imperfect--but God wants us back so Jesus died to take our place; it's a gift so it hinges on my acceptance. He's alive now.

Still here? Okay, I like diet Dr. Pepper, Diet Berries and Cream Dr. Pepper, and Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper. At least right now I do.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People who enjoy looking at my art, because I like creating it and seeing people enjoy it. People who will NOT use my comment space to ask if I were the one who asking about how to make money filling out surveys like a zombie. Decent people who respect the fact that I am a decent married woman.

I'd also like to meet Enoch...oh, and Melchizadek (can't spell it). That was a most mysterious man. I'd love to talk to those guys, but I can't at this time.

I'd like to meet President Bush. I'd like to have met former President Reagan also. Once again, another time, another place.

Music:

Among Thorns "Shelter Me" and more, DC Talk, Jars or Clay, Tom Petty, old Heart, some U2 songs, "Grace Like Rain" by Todd Agnew, "You Raise Me Up" by whoever that is. "The Lighthouse's Tale" by Nickel Creek.

Movies:

Lord of the Rings was good and well made.

Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe was fun but really more for children.

Television:

Books:

I like all sorts of books and to name a few would be to leave out a bunch.

OK,

Forty Days of Purpose

Even before I became a Christian, I always liked Ecclesiastes (can't spell it). I'm not sure why. Maybe it's the deep thinking and long ago setting...I don't know.

I like those Narnia books by C. S. Lewis.

Heroes:

Well, Jesus Christ, obviously.

The American (and other) soldiers who fight to keep terrorism out of our back yard and to give freedom to those who then use that freedom to undermine the war on terror and give Geneva rights to terrorist thugs for whom those rights were never written.

Yeah, to the American soldier and others who fight to keep us safe, free, and alive, thank you, thank you, more than you know. You are better than a million stay-puff talking marshmallows.

People who stay the course even when the going gets rough, and the cause is not popular.

I painted a Graveyard in Jefferson Tx

The historic Oakwood Cementery in Jefferson Texas is full of history and interesting, statuesque monuments. One of the graves is connected to a very sad story about a murdered woman who was known as D...

Snowing like crazy, but oh the irony...

So here we all were at work and the snow was coming down in large, silent flakes. And it drifted onto GREEN, WET GRASS. Oh, and did I say the snow was silent? Yes, the snow was silen...

One of My Early Paintings--From the 80s

Years ago I painted this imaginary landscape on a canvas panel, in oil paints. I remember "building" the structure in background. I wanted it to be a little ambiguous, seemingly natural, y...

New Old Artwork, "Absence of War."

Lots of people cry, "Peace not war," as if the absence of war will automatically mean peace. I know that war is a serious and terrible thing, whether it happens between two countries, within one...

Flowers and a Rusty Border

My latest piece is a magenta flower (more magenta in person than online) and some abstact "flowery" shapes. I just sort of let my imagination go here. I was thinking of rust when I added t...

Pink Rays and a Blue Book -- One of my Latest Works

Here is a non-objective piece that I recently did. I know many people out there don't like non-objective (commonly known as abstract) artwork. I don't like all of it myself. Of cours...

A Tree with Personality or, Man of the Woods

One recent spring, I gathered green, leafy vines. I wound them around a tree, forming a "face" complete with eyes, a nose, a mouth, and sort of a sideswept "bangs" look, achieved with a large le...

Crumbling Southwestern Structure

This old building was inspired by those I've seen in the Southwestern deserts, particularly the Jemez Mission. It is not meant to be the mission, but it's turned out to resemble it to a remarkab...

Large Hygrangeas that Threaten to Tip the Vase

Today I finished a painting of giant hygrangeas in a small container. When I was a child, I used to pick the hygrangeas from my grandmother's yard, which was in reality a prolific flower garden....

My art is getting weird.

As I was creating this piece, I kept thinking of the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. But this land has turned out to be an eerie, almost disturbing kind of mutant Dr. Suess wonderland.&nb...
