Painting Update

Image
An update on the painting I am working on while giving thanks for all of the strong military people who gave their lives for our freedom. Freedom to live in a free society and choose what you want to do. Choices made can change lives for the better. Compassion, respect and peace. Love, Laveda D. Rockford

What Is The Purpose To The Reason

  What Is The Purpose To The Reason What is the purpose to the reason of anything? The purpose could be an end to something, or the intention through determination which someone intends to get or do. But to what end? The reason or plan, if you say, is to justify an act through premises of an argument. Does it make sense to be justifiably wrong about something which could lead to a change of heart among the people? I just read a scripture in the bible that talks about the rich and the poor.                 My brothers, as believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ, don’t show favoritism. Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in shabby clothes also comes in.

Introduction: 2025 R 1 | Artwork by Laveda D. Rockford

This is my concept and the two that will be joining it is already in my mind. I will keep you posted. While you are waiting, here is a photo of 2025 R 1. God bless, Laveda D.
