SCRIPTURE VERSES AND ART
218 videos โข 212 views โข by A Happy Believer Hello Happy Believers, Discovering our Catholic Faith through Art and Scripture. I began painting in watercolour in 2019. I am a self-taught Artist. I found that paintings have a language all of their own and the bible has a power all of its own. So, I have decided to combine the two. Both with a healing potential for everybody on their own personal Catholic Faith Journey. My goal is to upload a new painting every week along with scripture audio. Always with the intention to point to Jesus. All my watercolour paintings are 12" x 16" . They are all Original from my AHB Watercolour collection. Thank you for taking the time to check out my paintings and audio. AHB ( A Happy Believer) ๐๐ฉ๐ผ๐๐ If You Enjoy The Content Please LIKE , SUBSCRIBE and SHARE. Thank You ๐ค๐๐ผ Hello Happy Believers, I have always had an interest in my Catholic faith and as I got older, I got more curious. I also developed an interest in the Bible. My faith has always been a slow gradual process, tried and tested. As time went on my faith started to make sense to me and I realised the Catholic church along with the Bible had a lot to offer me. I began painting in watercolour for the 1st time in March 2019 and I found it a wonderful way to express myself. I began to realize that Paintings have a Language all of their own and the words in the Bible have a Power all of their own and in my project, I have decided to combine the two. I spent a lot of time watching Artistโs speed painting on U tube as I learned the basic principles and different techniques. Then I started to put into practice what I learned and I took to it as a duck takes to water! I just loved it and when I am painting it is pure enjoyment and so relaxing as I love to listen to music as I am painting, always spiritual music. I developed my own style and decided not to copy other peopleโs paintings as I needed them to be original. I am a fast painter and I put this down to the fact that I learned mostly from watching speed painting!!. I can finish a painting in a day although I have decided to slow down as I am running out of space where to store all my paintings. Also, I use watercolours in a new method (my own) which allows my paintings to be vibrant and they do not look like Watercolour paintings at first or second glance. I continued to paint turning my kitchen into my art studio. As I continued to paint from 2019 โ 2021 different Ideas were developing around what I could explore using my Paintings, Scripture and the Catholic Church. I am a Self-Taught Artist. In 2021 I got an idea if I could upload art videos to U tube. Once I get an idea thatโs it and I began to investigate the possibility. Again, I spent lots of time watching U tube videos on how to upload videos, how to record videos, lighting, microphones, social media platforms etc. there was loads to learn and again I loved every minute of it. It was so interesting. What is unusual here is that I have no idea of how social media works as I am not on any social media platform myself. I donโt even have WhatsApp! So I decided for a business interest it was the way to go. And the 1st thing I bought was a 2nd mobile because I learned if I just used it at home for photographing and making videos it would cost me only 5 euroโs every 6 months. What a start! and I got started and through many errors and frustrations I eventually began to understand in a very basic and unprofessional way how to make videos on 7 social media platforms, but you know what? it was good enough for me! For the 1st time I uploaded a video on the 15th May 2022 to TikTok, Instagram, Face Book, Twitter, Pinterest and Flicker and I uploaded my 1st Long U tube approx. 12mins video and my 1st short U tube video 24th May 2022. And I havenโt stopped since uploading on a weekly basis. By Oct 28th 2022 I decided to open up my on-line Art Gallery along with a Catechism Audio which would be approx. 30mins long. Up until now only one person knows of my Project as I needed to keep it simple and I needed to focus on how it was developing. Then I decided that a website would be the next step. Again, I took to U tube to learn how to create a website but I quickly learned that it would be too time consuming and all my time was already taken up with painting and the 7 social media platforms. Also, I just did not have enough skills in that department I needed professional help. I began to pray I would find someone and very shortly I did. We met up and discussed my project, my ideas and the web design was put in motion on 25th April 2023 and turned out to be a great success ! As it stands, I now upload on to my 7 platforms TikTok, Instagram, Face Book, Twitter, Pinterest, Flicker, Utube ,6 times every week a busy schedule ! but very enjoyable .
