subtle revolution

"There are two kinds of revolutionists, as of most things- a good kind and a bad. The bad revolutionists destroy conventions by appealing to fads- fashions that are newer than conventions. The good do it by appealing to facts that are older than conventions." (G.K. Chesterton)

This is a collection of some of my paintings. The first and last images are the most indicative of my style and my perspective on life. The others are simply exercises from classes at UW-GB.

Name: Gregg

Location: St. Peters, Missouri, United States

I am a 27 year old pastor living in St. Peters, Missouri. Recently I became a full-fledged transplant from Wisconsin to the StL. My heart is devoted to the pursuit of God and sharing his message with others. I currently work with Crosswinds Church in St. Peters sharing teachings for a couple of weekly study groups as well as providing spiritual counseling at a local treatment/rehabilitation facility. Though I am intensely passionate about music, art, and theater- I can not think of anything I would rather be doing with my life than serving in the Name of my savior.

"Wherever you are, be all there. Live to the hilt every situation you believe to be the will of God." (Jim Elliot)

"There once was in man a true happiness of which now remain to him only the mark and empty trace, which he in vain tries to fill from all his surroundings, seeking from things absent the help he does not obtain in things present. But these are all inadequate, because the infinite abyss can only be filled by an infinite and immutable object, that is to say, only by God Himself." (Blaise Pascal)

"The best way out is always through." (Robert Frost)
"A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling 'darkness' on the wall of his cell..." (C.S. Lewis)
"If you plan to build a tall house of virtues, you must first lay deep foundations of humlilty." (St. Augustine)

"All the troubles of life come upon us because we refuse to sit quietly for a while each day in our rooms." (Blaise Pascal)
