'Into the Spring' by NZ Artist Suzanne Carter


Here is my new digital painting, dedicated to my friend Maggie Miller. Maggie and I were talking on Facebook this morning and she commented on my post about our cool Autumn weather here in New Zealand. She said something about coming into the spring in the US.  I thought it was quite cool how we were both talking together on Facebook and yet living a world apart in different time zones and different seasons of the year.

So when I had a break from teaching the children this morning I started messing around with some images and this is what I came up with:

Prophetic song by David Brymer and Misty Edwards

This song is just what I needed this morning, it has reminded me again to come away from the external busyness of life and run into Jesus, "the lover of my soul."
A timely reminder to return to our first love.

"You're Worthy Of My Praise" by NZ Artist Suzanne Carter


My new digital painting 'You're worthy of my praise' inspired by an older worship song that I love and that has been sung by various artists.

The lyrics say: I will give You all my worship
I will give You all my praise
You alone i long to worship
You alone are worthy of my praise

I will worship, i will worship
with all of my heart, with all of my heart
and i will praise You, i will praise You
with all of my strength, with all my strength
and i will seek You, i will seek You
all of my days, all of my days
o and i will follow, i will follow
follow all of your ways, all Your ways

(Chorus)

i will bow down, i will bow down
and hail You as king, hail You as king
o and i will serve you, i will serve you
i'll give You everything, i'll give You everything
o and i will lift up, i will lift up
my eyes to Your throne, my eyes to Your throne
o and i will trust You, i will trust You
o i will trust You alone, trust You alone

Release by NZ Artist Suzanne Carter



Here is something new I was working on last night. So excited to be learning new things. I am editing images in Gimp which is a free program similar to PhotoShop. I am waiting for CS5Design Premium software to arrive for my new IMac, seriously excited about being able to dive in and really learn some new skills.

This new artwork is inspired by the reality of the Indwelling Holy Spirit who comes to live in the heart of a believer who has received Christ as Lord and Savior. We who belong to Jesus are all called to release the Love of God that we have received from Him to the world around us. We are called to be a light in the darkness because 'the light of the world dwells in us'

'Gaze' a new digital artwork by NZ Artist Suzanne Carter

I finished working on a new digital artwork last night and I love the vintage image of the little girl she has such a faraway dreamy look in her eyes, hence the name 'Gaze'. She reminds me of the innocence of children and the purity of their faith.

No wonder Jesus warns that whoever harms one of these little ones it would be better for him to tie a millstone around his neck and be thrown into the sea!

Fair as the moon by NZ Artist Suzanne Carter

I have just finished a new digital painting or photo-manipulation called 'Fair as the moon'. I love the book of 'Song of Solomon' in the bible, it is such an amazing book. I love how it depicts the relationship between the Shulamite and the Beloved and her journey toward intimacy!
