title: Create for the One who made me: a book of prayer, poetry and paint
author:  Mindy Lacefield 
description: Mindy Lacefield is a mixed media artist who draws inspiration from the nostalgia and rainy days of her childhood. Creating from the heart of a 7 year old, Mindy cherishes the tactile process of painting. As the layers and colors evolve, decisions are made in the moment. Mistakes are applauded and accidents cherished. It is only through the process of making mistakes that fosters growth. Surrendering to the outcome of the finished work, allows her to be one with the process. Through surrendering, stillness is achieved and a new awakening of hearing the voice of God has been the most beautiful thing about this creative journey. Mindy is a full time artist living in central Arkansas with her husband and two poodles, Merlin and Sammy. She teaches around the country and online.

  WRITING BOOKS IS about dreaming big dreams while your eyes are wide open. It’s about playing
  God and battling demons. With this book, I want to thank my husband for giving me the time and space
  to wage my wars and dream my dreams with Gage. He’s brought me food, rubbed my shoulders, and
  listened when I needed to babble.
  I also wish to thank my wonderful readers. You’ve followed me from a fiery vampire to a tattoo
  artist with attitude and a wand. Your outpouring of support and enthusiasm carries me through the
  rough days when Gage doesn’t want to talk.
  As always, a big thanks to my amazing editor, Diana Gill. I write stories because it’s my thing.
  Diana is the reason I tell a da
