About JKruis
An artist's statement is always evolving. Learning, maturity, experiences and dreams all have an impact and are part of the transforming process. I think you will see a variety of feelings in my work. Some will reflect my enjoyment of nature in my gardens, by the lakes and rivers, or as I travel in parts of Latin America visiting and doing business and community development. Faces capture me. Animals speak. I don't always understand the language but the messages of hope, despair, fear and dreaming call out.
Through painting I share the journey. Through weaving I find a place of rest. Through sharing words, talks and teaching I find a way to give life to possibilities and healing to brokeness.
My degree and experience brought me business and ministry. My passion for creating and people has brought me to a life that lets me share from my heart.
I serve in outreach locally and in Latin America. To hear about the news and receive notification of gatherings or exhibitions...sign up for "My Creative Mission" newsletter.
