Grace Point Gallery Cafe
Currently Carol's artwork is exhibited at the Grace Point Gallery Cafe in South Kansas City.
It is a beautiful exhibit and it was great to hear the incredible ways God brings joy through her creativity! We had a very uplifting and encouraging time!
Carol grew up in Kansas with a love for children and their stories. She graduated with a BA degree in Special Education. She taught for six years in Denver, Colorado in both private and public education.
While her husband, Rhett, pastored churches in both Colorado and Kansas, she homeschooled their two children from elementary through high school.
In 2004 Carol and her husband moved to China for one year where they taught English to university students at SIAS International University in Xing Zheng City.
In 2007 she began to dabble and play with paint. She found it gave her such joy that she continues with it today.
It is her desire that God is glorified in her attempts to create a little beauty on canvas.

YOung Artists Workshop and Gallery EvenT
July 29-August 1, 2020

Artist Talk and Reception with Gary Wilcutt
⭐ Gary is presently the curator/administrator for The Welcome Gallery at Northland Cathedral in Kansas City, Missouri where they are creating an environment for artists to blossom.
"My personal focus recently is on making the invisible visible in terms of bringing clarity to spiritual concepts while making them visually pleasing as well as thought provoking. Art is becoming more of an adventure for me and I am learning to use all three aspects of myself; spirit, soul and body in the making of creations that are often ending up so much more than I imagined at their beginnings. Part of the adventure is in learning to embrace using uncontrollable techniques and happy accidents."

Artist Talk and Reception
|
Monica Womack and Jeanie E. Hines both shared stories of how God influenced them to create beautiful art work.
It was an inspirational evening hearing about their creative process! |
JEANIE E. HINES
A local Kansas City resident. The complexity and beauty of life and landscape inspires her. Whether it’s a gorgeous sunset, or merely the flash of bird wings in flight, she brushes on watercolors or blends and mixes. She especially enjoys the problem solving angle of painting and often works on her paintings in a section by section method. Watching them “become” balanced in composition, pleasant in contrasts of color by using a variety of application techniques is rewarding and rejuvenating. When a person viewing her work shares that it has connected by stirring a memory or an emotion, she feels the work has accomplished its purpose. |
MONICA WOMACK
Born in El Paso, TX but raised in Chihuahua, Mexico until she married and moved back to the U.S.A. At the age of 50 she encountered God and her life was changed. Now, Monica volunteers for a halfway house and is on an art team that functions inside of a 24/7 prayer room. Inspired by the bible, meditation and prayer takes her to a place where she becomes one with God. Monica says, “My artwork is like a door that I can open to a place where I meet and know the Master of Creation.” |
