“Three Girls” Visual Painting Film
What’s happening now!
I’m excited to share that, by the grace of God, I have taken the step to expand the Waiting Area’s resources with Visual Painting Films. These short films will bridge live-action storytelling with the paintings, capturing the biblical message of each piece to spread the Gospel along with bringing awareness to the art piece. A contract has been signed with a film crew in Chicago, IL, to film the first project: the Three Girls painting. We are scheduled to shoot on Sunday, April 12. I will be traveling from my residence (a 5.5-hour drive) to Chicago with the 24” x 48” sculptural painting. This particular short film tells the story of so many of us navigating parenthood. It will shine a light on the shift from worldly standards of parenting to the peace that comes with functioning in the way God intends. Children are a gift from the Lord and it is our godly responsibility to cherish and protect them, and to train them up in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
The Inspiration
Last year on Mother’s Day, I received a heartfelt text from a dear friend and sister in Christ. She hasn’t missed a year so far (no pressure though…just in case she’s reading this lol). In my response to her, I began to articulate a shift I was seeing in my own life. Before my walk in Christ, I was mothering according to the world’s standards, and honestly, it felt like a constant, uphill battle. With the surrender of my life to Christ came a complete transformation that changed the way I see my daughter and my role as a mother. This short film is a cinematic reflection of that shift. If it’s the Lord’s will, it will be released for the world to see on Saturday, May 9, 2026 (Mother’s Day weekend).
Thank you all for your support!
