“Religious leader Donald Hilliard, Jr. teaches and mentors many but now he has created an artistic body of work described as expressionistic abstract art that speaks to the mind and soul through his brilliant use of color and shapes that grabs your attention and creates a rare moment of introspection.”A published author, lecturer, mentor and leader, Hilliard showed a love for art since he was a child. Several years ago his family framed an oil painting that his mother saved for over 30 years, since his teen years. Two years ago, while recovering from major surgery, his nurse offered him pen and paper in an effort to help him focus on something other than family, ministry and work. That one act became the impetus for what is now known as Divine Liturgy In Abstract™, which has grown to over 70 original works of art and still counting. His first public showing of his collection debuted in November 2005 where he was introduced by the famed fine artist, Alonzo Adams at the Sienna Visions Gallery. The Divine Liturgy In Abstract™ collection features such works as, Through It All, Stairway To Heaven, The Ties That Bind™ , and the signature piece, “Thank You”. The collection features original, one-of-a-kind paintings.
His collection, Divine Liturgy In Abstract is shown by appointment and at the new Vision Gallery located at 282 Madison Avenue in Perth Amboy, NJ. For more information, call 862-215-8459 or email pulpit2palette@yahoo.com.
