Faith Art Galleries
Gallery Gab:
Look Familiar? Look Again!
In celebration of Trinity Sunday, Faith artist Beth Sekera has subtly repurposed the beautiful artwork she created to commemorate Christ’s baptism celebrated on January 11. The stylized tryptic graced the Gathering Place through mid-February. Look familiar? Now look again! You’ll note that a new center piece, which represents the Triune God, has replaced the original center piece depicting John the Baptist, and has been raised to add a three-dimensional effect to the overall work.
As Pastor Julie explains elsewhere in a recent issue of the Dove, “We need a treasury of language and imagery to even begin to express the richness of God’s relationship with us. Grounding all these images is the way the Triune God makes Godself known to us: as Father, Son and Holy Spirit…” Many thanks to Beth for sharing her vision and talents with all of us through her art!
Sincerely,

New Gallery Exhibit:
Original Oil Paintings
by Astrid Enskat
In the main art gallery, an ongoing exhibit of paintings by the wondrously talented Astrid Enskat, late mother of Eric Enskat, Faith’s office and building administrator, features some new pieces you won’t want to miss. Everything currently on exhibit is looking for a new home, so please come by to see the newest pieces, and to see if one may be calling to fill a space in your home. So far, more than five of Astrid’s paintings have been “adopted” by Faith members happy to give them a new home. Interest is running high for other works in the collection, so if you are interested in taking home one of Astrid’s paintings, please contact Eric Enskat.
This exhibit has been extended until early August.
