https://www.btaylorharrison.comAs a believer in Elohim, the Creator God, the time I dedicate to my work is not only spent responding to the beauty I find in Him, but a divine exorcism of my capacity to create as His image-bearer and thus, a means of knowing Him. The temptation, as with my faith, is to assume an air of control – to conquer the darkness by authoring a light of my own design. Rather, I strive to enter the space as a witness – to hear His voice even as I hear the work cry out for one stroke or another; to rest when the work is silent – with the hope that the Holy might be translated through my humanity. This posture between myself, my work, and my God is a call and response, a hymn I sing back to my Creator. I work with what I best know and paint in tones that resonate more deeply than words or imagery, tones that must be arranged in color and felt even if they are not understood.
Open Studios Directions
If traveling north-west down Pendleton street, ArtBomb studios will be on the right, just past Cracker Jack's.
