Behind a farmhouse in Australia was a little shed that Gran called her art studio. Pop called it a mess, but Wren called it wonderful. Wren loved to make art with her grandmother. It made her feel special and important. Wren and Gran didn’t always paint landscapes, though. Sometimes they painted their feelings, what they called ‘painting prayers’. A poignant story to emphasise God’s desire to listen to all our prayers, no matter how sad, angry, or fearful they may be.
