Art in Community among the Poor

Here is a self portrait done within a year of moving to Romania to work with Word Made Flesh. Many of the Apartment buildings are still on a common heating system which may get turned off before the cold weather is over.

This is when I began to work on reconciling an appreciation for fine art, faith in Christ, the need to do justice, and to not be a lone ranger.

I had no studio at the time and so I would go to the market with a sketchbook.
