Creating Sacred Beauty is an interactive journey of discovering not only the artwork, but the ingenuity and talent behind it. It features artists creating in a variety of media: Lalo Garcia, Lisa Hendey, David Judson, Jefferson Tortorelli, Ximena Palencia, and Bryan Roach.

Connecting the artistic process to the unique human hearts of these individuals is the emotional core of this series. Katia Villanueva uncovers a deeper understanding of artisans devoted to creating sacred beauty to explore what draws these artists to use their gifts and how their faith informs their creativity.   

We all, as humans, uniquely yearn for something beautiful. No matter our upbringing, creed, religion, or personal taste, art lifts our minds to the divine. By art's power, we are stirred and become more connected.

Art, especially religious art, is integral to cultures all over the world...but what is special about particularly sacred art, or art oriented towards the act of worship? 

When people have found purpose in their craft as Christians, it inspires us also to reflect on the gifts we have and the meaning we can and do add to the world.
