Our Story

We are a team of two. My husband David creates beautiful hardwood forms for some of our locally available art pieces. I am a painter and illustrator with over three decades of experience creating fine art, portraits, and concept art.

A few years ago I was struck by the realization that the commercial art pieces I was creating for marketing purposes and for video games would eventually be discarded or become obsolete. In addition, they were not images which were "from my heart". For a number of years I had been discerning an increasingly insistent call to create art which expresses my Christian faith.

With David's support and encouragement I made a right angle turn in my art career, and began Holy Family of the Springs studio, a project devoted to creation of art pieces representing sacred subjects, primarily events from the lives of Jesus and Mary. The works we create spring from this call to evangelize using images. 

In his letter to artists Saint John Paul II challenged us: "The close alliance that has always existed between the Gospel and art means that you are invited to use your creative intuition to enter into the heart of the mystery of the Incarnate God and at the same time into the mystery of man."

For thousands of years religious art has been created to inspire, to communicate and to teach. Our work aims to continue that tradition.
