“In the Presence” is a painting from my ‘Old Made New Series’ in March 2022. 
This series is inspired by 2 Corinthians 5:17. 
 
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”
 
For this series, I revisited some paintings that didn’t turn out how I wanted or just didn’t feel quite complete. I added layer after layer of paint —day after day—until I finally each of these paintings emerged. 
 
The process of taking something I thought was unfixable and turning it into something beautiful reminded me of 2 Corinthians 5:17. Jesus takes us covered in sin and shame and makes us a new creation in Him. The old us dies aways, and He sees us in His perfect image.
