Janice VanCronkhite, Christian Artist

Arts were always my passion, painting specifically. I thought I would never have the opportunity to do what burned for so many years in me to do.

Suddenly, something happened. My God started flooding me with creativity for paintings... Dreams, visions, prophetic words, and scriptures.

My most powerful heavenly experiences began to occur while painting, especially in the midst of amazing worship in conferences.

Now, there is the outflow of creativity to allow me to impart
creativity and help people tear down the walls that have kept
them from pursuing the gift that brings them hope and life.
God continues to be my greatest teacher, the most creative
creator of all…come and see!

Faith Like a Child

Description:
The disciples asked Jesus, "Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven? He responded, "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the Kingdom." Matthew 18

When viewing this painting for the first time, the owner of 'Faith Like A Child' exclaimed, "That's me! I'm going to hang it in my office with a sand box and my flip flops nearby. I'm going to put my feet in the sand daily to remind me to live in this freedom!" She will no doubt be used continually to impart this truth as she tells her story to those who ask about the painting.

Desperation

Description:
There is a gift of desperation which allows us to be so dependent on Him that we are unable to operate in our own strength. Sometimes we are allowed to experience great hardships in order to get to this place where we can truly hear His voice. My greatest freedom has been experienced when my spirit literally crawls up the stairway to His presence. Deuteronomy 33:27

Mended

Description:
A golden supernatural thread descends from the heavenly vortex and mends the broken heart that is then illuminated with new life. Angelic orbs saturated the atmosphere at the Gary and Kathi Oates Healing Conference where this was painted.

Laid Down Lover

Description:
After spending some time with Heidi Baker of Mozambique, I was impressed with her desire to be a " laid down lover of Jesus." The passion of this painting is my attempt to express on canvas a like desire. Liquid grace and love is poured down on the abandoned figure.

He is Coming

Description:
A couple weeks prior to the Lord taking her home, Jane Jones shared a vision she had during prayer. Jane and her husband, Phil, were leading the Costa Rica Blood n Fire ministering powerfully to the poor of that country. Jesus was riding a white horse at breakneck speed through the branches to her and she said He was either coming to heal her or take her home. She is greatly missed by us all and her legacy will live on in the precarios of San Jose.

Kiss The Sword

Description:
As we embrace God's word, lives are changed and cities are illuminated with His Light and the light we carry in us as a result. Chuck Pierce's message on the year of the sword inspired this painting which was done during worship in Shreveport.
