I'm Sorry

Painting

Artist Statement: I fell to my knees before Him, and I said, “I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry.” I was full of regret for my impatience, my choices, and my failures. I was crying and pleading with Jesus to forgive me. I knew I wouldn’t change without His help. I begged Him to touch me. Jesus reached out and placed His hands on my head, and I was hopeful that He would make me better. He touched my head, my neck, my stomach: every place that was broken. I knew I would go right back to my old ways if He didn’t fix me. I ached to be healed.

Bio: Alisa E. Clark is an avid acrylic painter and collage artist who enthusiastically explores ways to share her creative process. Alisa communicates the transformative power of art through words and images and believes in releasing the spiritual power of painting to others. From within the creative flow, in-between moments are captured with a paintbrush and the artist’s voice. A better understanding of our “In-Betweens” waits inside Alisa’s paintings. Alisa received her B.F.A. from Pratt Institute and has an M.S. in education. Her latest book (Art and Liminal Space, 2020) is the compilation of Alisa’s recent work with reflections that explore liminality’s influence upon it. Mindfulness Paintings (2019) encourages everyone to engage in the creative process and always value their process over their product.
