#07 Pearl Lights, TX Print

From my April 2020 hand painted watercolor collection, 31 Days of Mini Paintings.  Each of these 4”x4” pieces were inspired by my favorite places I have visited around the world, they each hold very special meaning for me and my loved ones.  As I painted, beautiful memories rushed in my heart of the laughter, joy, hugs, meaningful conversations, and breathtaking views that were inspired by our Creator.  I hope a spark of inspiration springs forth in you as you enjoy your own piece of our blue jewel earth.

This area has always been a favorite place for me, 22 years ago the light came on inside my heart as I joined a very small group of friends to feed many homeless hungry bellies. I was huge pregnant with my second child, holding the hand of my first born princess, eyes wide open at the line that was a mile long, knowing there was no way the food I was serving was going to feed all of the people standing before me. I watched in complete shock as I served ladle after ladle and the level of the hot stew in my pot did not drop. I had tears, I had fear, I had excitement, I had seen a miracle. Truly. When the last person walked up I still had enough for a few to enjoy seconds. I’m still not sure if I was there for them or for me, we all walked away full. I was changed, my light was ON.
What seems hopeless and forgotten one decade becomes the restoration of all things in another. In a few short years that homeless outreach ministry became Church Under The Bridge with a new facility only a few blocks away.
Today “The Pearl” is no longer an old run down brewery, it is the most gorgeous hot spot in our city!! This once industrial area on the fringe of downtown San Antonio is now a renovated upscale historic district with people bustling about the fabulous restaurants, shopping, dog parks, apartments, hotels, and the San Antonio River running right through it! One would never know the way it used to be... I like to think that’s the hope for all of us, the once downtrodden people and places are no more, now filled with joy and colorful bright lights! Just like The Pearl.
One pearl of great price, one soul full of light.
