Paul Soupiset
and his family have been attending our church for a couple of
months. I met Paul and his wife Amy at an emerging church gathering here in San
Antonio. I have a lot of sympathies with the
emergent church movement, and Covenant Baptist Church (I hope)
embodies some of its principles.
Anyway, Paul is an artist. No really, like a
serious artist. I was knocking around his blog and noticed that he is doing a
small watercolor painting in a
Moleskin watercolor journal each day during
Lent. I love them. He brought the actual book to church last week, and I got to
see the originals.
This one is my favorite so far. I spent
some time looking at it and letting my mind prayerfully drift.
These are very interesting and tender
paintings. They reflect Paul's mindset during Lent. And, in proper emergent
fashion, the line between sacred and secular is blurred, if not obliterated. And
that is a thing that I like.
So, I'm pleased to display Paul's work. Paul
did all the html and design for this microgallery. Enjoy.
ps - If you visit Paul's blog you can read
some of his
reflections on these paintings.
