“Painting for me is an expression of gratitude for the gifts nature provides us. Stop for a moment and take in the magnificence of the changing sky, the sound of bubbling water in a brook, a flower up close, or the rose glow on the mountains as the sun goes down in the west,” Van Vynckt says. “There is a deep spirituality to everything we find, and it is as close to us as our heartbeat.”
