An Invitation to Restore Beauty
Every commission begins with listening. Listening to the needs of a parish, the purpose of a space, and the pastoral and theological life that sacred art is called to serve.
If you are a priest, parish leader, institution, or patron seeking to restore beauty in service of worship and evangelization, I welcome your inquiry.
For Sacred Commissions
If you are considering a sacred commission for a parish, chapel, institution, or other worship space, please share as much context as possible.
Helpful details include:
Name and location of the parish or institution
The space under consideration
The scale or scope being discussed
Timeline or stage of planning
The pastoral and theological intentions guiding the project
Sacred art is not decoration. It participates in the Church’s liturgical and catechetical mission. Clear intention at the beginning allows the work to serve that mission faithfully.
For Patrons and the Domestic Church
If you are seeking sacred art for your home, I am glad to help you discern a work that supports prayer, devotion, and the formation of the imagination.
The home is rightly called the domestic church. Sacred art within it should not merely adorn a wall, but assist the life of grace for the entire family.
In both parish and home, sacred art serves one purpose: to dispose the soul to encounter God.
A Note on Discernment
Not every project is the right fit. Sacred art requires theological clarity, unity of vision, patience, and a long horizon.
True sacred art endures because it is ordered to worship, not preference.
Discernment protects the integrity of the work and the good of the Church.
Begin a Conversation
If you are discerning how sacred art might serve your parish, institution, or home, I invite you to begin a conversation.
Sacred art is not an accessory to the Church’s life.
It is the primary way the Gospel is made visible.
