The Parables and Michael & Liz Make New DVD

I recently attended one of Liz's photo shoots on "The Parables".  What an amazing experience.  No one could hold back the tears as we watched the models come to life as they portrayed their roles so well. The 2 models enacted Christ and a modern day version of the lost sheep that seemed so lifelike and real that you were in awe while observing.

Just the other day Michael McLean came into the studio with an idea for his Forgotten Carols.  He had written a new song and wanted to put several of Liz's painting of Christ, his birth and life on a large screen to be shown in a slide presentation as the Forgotten Carol's closing number.

We now have Michael's new song along with Liz's beautiful art work in a brand new DVD titled "Arise and Shine Forth".  If you would like a sneak peak of this amazing DVD you can see the actual video by going to: CLICK Foundation Arts

"Watching Liz At Work" ~ By Cori Dyer

For the past several days I have had the opportunity to watch international artist Liz Lemon Swindle direct several photo shoots for some of her up and coming paintings in "The Parables" project.

"The Parables" project is a collection of over 50 paintings that represent on canvas both the Biblical and modern day settings of Christ's parables as in the New Testament.  

Each of "The Parables" paintings have hidden symbols that the viewer can find.  These symbols are a representation of Christ's hidden message that he wove into his parables.

This collection will not be completed until 2012 but you can start your own exclusive collection of "The Parables" right now by going to: http://www.lizlemonswindle.com/
