This is a giclee print of an original painting: 2023.06.24 Let the Children Come To Me. Acrylic on birch panel. 44x71. Sarah Marsh Commission

In June of 2023 I collaborated with long time friend and faithful artistic champion / client Dr. Sarah Marsh. My wife and I have known and loved Sarah since our college years, and have watched in awe as she has worked tirelessly to earn her MD, marry and expand her delightful family, and get her certification as a pediatric doctor. I was humbled when she came to me to ask to create a work of art to hang in her pediatric practice as a blessing to her patients, families, and fellow staff. “Let the Children Come to Me” was born out of our discussions about her vision for the painting based on the passages in Matthew, Mark, and Luke where Jesus tells his distracted and self important disciples to allow the (seemingly insignificant) children to come to him. I intentionally included specific figures in reference of Sarah’s three daughters and diverse clientele, celebrating the diversity and beauty of God’s expansive love to humanity. In a day of heightened division and open hostility between warring nations, political ideologies, religions, and races, Jesus’ message of love is more relevant than ever.
