About the Artist: "When I consider the stars, and the finely tuned immensity of the universe or stand in awe of the exquisite symmetry and beauty in nature I am overwhelmed by a sense of purpose and design for which there can be no other cause attributed than that of an intelligent and loving creator. God communicates to us through the work of His hands, and as beings created in His own image, He has given us the ability to communicate abstract ideas and thoughts through words, music, and the arts. All art, of whatever form, is born out of a need to communicate something, some idea, some emotion, some truth about the reality of the world we live in. In my case, if my work can speak truthfully, and with integrity about subjects I have chosen, an by inference testify of their Creator then I am blessed, privileged and grateful. I believe I speak for all the artists here at Mill Creek Studios that it is our hope that everything we do here enlarges the imagination. As the apostle Paul said, "... whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy - meditate on these things." Phil 4:8 -Stephen Herrero
