About Pastor Mike
From their earliest years, I read to our children. While they will never forget the classics, such as The Chronicles of Narnia, by C.S. Lewis, I think what they loved and will remember most was listening to the stories of my childhood. The memories I passed onto them of growing up on a small farm in Michigan, for them, I became a storyteller. As my children grew and had their own children, my wife Trisha inspired me to not only put my stories into books, but also to illustrate them for future generations to come. I showcase my watercolor paintings through my studio, 4life Art.
I painted this picture in 1969.
It was the first painting I ever painted and I wouldn't paint again until 2009, forty years later.
My mother, who passed in 1998 painted this picture in 1974. It still hangs on the wall in my office today.
