About:

​

Art & Contemplation will be a series of books containing wise quotes, visual artwork and Bible verses from various artists and authors. Each trio is brief but deep, allowing for space to contemplate. Intended as a guide to come alongside you in your human and creative journey, they can be read like a daily devotional or viewed as an art book. Art & Contemplation offers a way to spark and shape your imagination through beauty, curiosity, reflection, new perspectives and a gracious way to connect with the soul and the divine.
