About Shand
Within the past 4 years I have dug deeper into the gift that God has given me - to paint.

What a joy it has been to be amazed by what is there - naturally. How exciting to uncover and press into the treasure that has been waiting to be revealed. Every stroke has taught me to be more patient. First with great frustration feeling like I should be doing something else to generate an income. Belief has been a huge barrier. Isn't it funny how we can believe so easily in others and push others forward, but fear that spot light for ourselves?

 I guess you could say I have been a spectator sitting in the stadium watching and cheering for the guys on the field. Well, God sure doesn’t want me there anymore. With every stroke and every completed painting God has freed me to expose His amazing gift. I can sit for hours painting. It is only the body that aches that stops me from going on. I am captivated. Thank you Father.

It is my prayer that these artworks would not be about an artist selling paintings, but that each one would minister to it's owner or to those who visit our website. As Mother Teresa once said, "We can not do anything great, only small things with great love." I pray that in this same spirit each stroke may be with patience, sensitivity and love and that this would be evident to those who view these portraits and paintings.
