About the Collection

HOW CREATIVE IS OUR GOD?

To me, dogs represent facets of some of God’s personality, sense of humor and mind-boggling creativity. 

DOGS CAN BE:

  • Companions

  • Full of personality, funny and childlike

  • Reading Partner

  • Protector

  • Seeing for us

  • Hearing for us

  • Smelling for us (from diabetic symptoms to bomb squad)

  • Work for us and with us

  • Warm and soft - tactile

  • Teach responsibility

  • Help with social isolation and anxiety

  • Emotional bonds

  • Increased empathy toward others

WHAT’S WITH THE MURALS?

ART brings people together. City Murals bring a bit of light, laughter, selfies and sometimes poignant messages. AS GOD TRANSFORMS OUR CITY, I hope we will see more and more art-in-all-forms to represent God’s beauty and message of hope and love in even the most simple ways. MY HOPE FOR THIS ART SHOW is to bring a bit of fun, laughter, happy memories and to perhaps spark creativity and ideas in others. ENJOY! - Camille
