Ascribing Artists is a creative ministry bringing together visual artists who desire to ascribe or attribute their work and life to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The ministry is inspired by Psalm 29:2, "Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name" and shows that we are to be "A Reflection of His Glory" in all that we do.
Not all Ascribing Artists paint religious themes or Biblical depictions. The subject matter of the artist is not necessarily what makes us Ascribing Artists, it is the heart behind the artist with the desire to share the gospel. We recognize that anything we do pales in comparison to the Glory of the Lord, so our desire is not to offer something that deserves praise, but to point to the only ONE worthy of praise.

Huntsville Times: Artists show faith through creativity
"Psalm 19:1" by Paul LaBathe, copyright
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
Artists show faith through creativity
Friday, April 02, 2010
By Kay Campbell
Times Faith & Values Editor kay.campbell@htimes.com
Christian designers aim to 're-claim the arts' with network of encouragement
ELKMONT- Graphic artist Paul LaBathe caught his first glimpse of Ascribing Artists, a networking group for Christian artists he helped found, back when he was looking for direction from God.
LaBathe's secure job at Dynetics was changing, and he wondered if God were calling him to another path.
As is his custom, he began reading through the Psalms, praying his question as he read through the poems of thanksgiving, complaint and praise. He also wondered how his artistic abilities fitted in with his Christian calling.
Then he came to Psalm 29:2: "Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name."
"That's it," he thought. "Everything I do, even if it's not obviously Christian, is for the glory of God."
The idea of a logo created out of a capital "A" drawn under an up-side-down "A" came into his mind as the perfect way to capture the goal of a Christian artist: To reflect God's glory, not his own.

We want to thank Stephanie Beecken for this wonderful opportunity!
Interview Transcript:
Dozens of people in North Alabama are using their God given talents to teach others about faith.
60 Valley artists have come together and formed the group called ‘Ascribing Artists.' They do everything from paint, draw and sculpt all while giving glory to God.
Denise Onwere has been an artist for 5 years.
She's always loved to paint and decided to fulfill her passion and talent full time.
"I know that there are a lot of people out there who have something that God has given them and they should know that and it's okay to say God has given me this and I'm proud of it," said Onwere.
She is not alone.
Paul Labathe is strong in faith and an artist as well. He founded the Ascribing Artists group.
"Basically is comes from Psalm 29:2 which is, ascribe to the Lord the glory of his name," said Labathe.
The artists come from all over North Alabama.
Some have a studio at Lowe Mill in Huntsville.
There is no charge to join.
The group even has a blog with links to the artists' websites.
"The point is to, in the opportunity He's given us, is to show our art and exhibit our art is to try to point others to come and know the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as we do," said Labathe.
The Ascribing Artists display their work in exhibits across North Alabama.
The Artists will have their work on display during two upcoming exhibits.

Art On the Square Gears Up for 2010 Artists
By Diane Lehr
Art On The Square plans to offer multiple artist gatherings and workshops in 2010. A marketing workshop geared to visual artists who work in any medium will kick off the AOTS year. The first workshop will be held on Sat., March 13, 2010, from 9am- noon, at The Club House on Marion Street in downtown Athens. The event is titled Art Marketing! An Artist's Meet and Workshop!
“This is a dynamic event for local artists,” says Lisa Milby, President of Art On The Square. “ It brings a wealth of information to our artists who wish to pursue broader opportunities in getting their art out to multiple communities. It also encourages artists to do the things that keep art alive in our area. We are making this workshop very affordable because we want artists to be encouraged and supported in their work. One way to do that is to sponsor events that facilitate artists meeting with one another and sharing their experiences or learning about concrete ways to continue making art in spite of obstacles that real life brings to the process.”
On Saturday, March 13, at 9am, AOTS will host this first of several planned gatherings of local artists in the area. This particular workshop will include mega doses of marketing strategies specific to art. The agenda will include everything from creating a marketing kit and approaching galleries to developing grassroots marketing strategies.
Featured speakers include Gina Hurst of Ascribing Artists, who is a long time art promoter with over 20 years experience in the art market. Gina has served on multiple art related non-profits and Boards, has experience managing art galleries, and is considered a networking mentor. Also presenting will be Athens own Trisha Black, Executive Director of the downtown revitalization organization, Spirit of Athens, who has an extensive education and career history in marketing and media.
The cost is $25 for the three hour workshop and includes a continental breakfast and a complimentary one year membership to the Art On The Square organization. Art On The Square has events planned throughout the calendar year that include Children's Art Camps in June, a Preview Party and Silent Auction in August,and a juried Fine Art Festival on the Courthouse grounds in downtown Athens on Sept.11,2010. The fee for this educational workshop in March is set to mainly cover the breakfast and printing costs involved in making this happen.
“We are determined to be an organization that works diligently to meet our mission,” Ms. Milby says, “Art On The Square, is a non-profit organization, created by a dedicated group of volunteers, to support local artists, promote art education, and bring cultural events to our area.”
If you are interested in attending the workshop, you may view the website atwww.aots-athens.com or email artonthesquare@hotmail.comor call 256-444-8156, and reserve your spot, as space is limited.

Alabama Clay Conference: Feb. 19-21, 2001
The 25TH ANNUAL ALABAMA CLAY CONFERENCE is anticipated to be one of the greatest ever! For the first time, Troy University has the pleasure of hosting this historic event and welcomes lovers of clay art from everywhere to the City of Troy!
Indeed the community of Troy IS hosting this event. From the University to the Chamber of Commerce; from Malone Gallery to the brand new Johnson Center for the Arts; Troy welcomes YOU to explore the rhythms of clay as a cultural, social and economic medium.
This conference is being brought to you by the Alabama Craft Council, the Alabama State Council on the Arts, the Department of Art and Design of Troy University, and the Potter's Council.
This years presenters—Juan Quezada, Lana Wilson, Marko Fields, and Brian Nettles—each have their unique stories to share with us: the rhythms in which they work and produce, the generation of fabulously unique work(s) from a wide variety of historical and contemporary influences, and what forms of re-generation take place in their creative lives as they pass on their knowledge and passion to other clay enthusiasts, patrons of our craft, and future potters and ceramic artists.
For more info and registration, please visit: http://www.alclayconference.org/index.html

Dara Murphy: Worship Painting
Update: This was a fun event. It was a delight to meet Dara. This is the picture that emerged from her worship painting, which was created while listening to worship music. One person in the audience mentioned they thought the finished artwork would be pretty a picture... but when you think about it... what Christ went through for us on the Cross... was not pretty... I think Dara captured the reality of such a sacrifice... in her bold colors and expression.
Dara Murphy is the Preteen Director at Hill Crest Baptist Church in Anniston, AL. If you would like for Dara to paint a worship painting for your group, please contact Dara at: (256) 238-9600 or dara@experiencehillcrest.com
We have asked Dara to be a featured artist on the Ascribing Artists blog. Look for details soon.
----------------------------------------
