Haiti
For nearly 20 years I’ve been painting as an “artistic ambassador” of Haiti. From my first simple watercolors to the massive twelve door “Beyond The Ruins” Haiti series, the cause of seeing Haiti’s restoration has remained dear to my heart.
Lausanne Movement
I’ve had the incredible privilege of serving since 2014 as the artist-in-residence for the Lausanne Movement, founded by Billy Graham and John Stott to unify the leaders of the global evangelical church with the mission to see “The whole church bring the whole gospel to the whole world.” I painted the banner image “Sunflowers” for the movement’s 40th anniversary and continued with a second project to paint one image for their fourfold vision per year. Those four paintings came together in Manila, Philippines for the first time for the unveiling of the fourth painting, and the series is now on world tour among the global partners of the Lausanne Movement. These four pillars along with a new 50th anniversary image are all gathering in Seoul, Korea for Lausanne’s fourth global congress in September of 2024.
Commissions
Coming Soon- a gallery collection of my best commission work.
YMCA Greater Charlotte Region
I’ve had the great privilege of working alongside the YMCA of Charlotte to prayerfully create images to hang in the prayer rooms of our various regional branches, in addition to serving in my role as visual scribe/ prophetic painter for many gatherings and events and as “artist in residence” at Camp Harrison. My hope is to be able to paint an image for each of the 16+ branches in the Greater Charlotte area, and by doing so, explore God’s heart and assignment for the entire city of Charlotte. I am constantly sharing my deep appreciation that our regional YMCA is Christ centered and views its staff, its mission, and its ministry as an extension of the love of Jesus to our community in a myriad of day to day activities. I am humbled to be a part of such an amazing group of people and to help, for my part, make the Kingdom visible! - Bryn Gillette
