God Help Us All by CM Laster. 12 x 13 1/4.
Paint on metal. Signed at bottom. Has a small hole at top for
hanging. After years of personal struggle, CM (Mike) Laster found the
healing power of art. With God's love and continual guidance he follows
the path as it is revealed to him. His subject matter is personal as
he shares his own spiritual struggles and open his life up to others.
If he gains a piece of wisdom that he thinks could benefit someone, he
shares that. If he is inspired by a musician or another artist, he
makes art about that. Sometimes he is just being silly and having fun.
But ultimately he makes art about the vision and the message. The
vision is about making his dreams come alive and the message is about
love. Mike makes his art out of whatever materials he can get cheap or
free and he experiments with new ways of working all the time. He has
been an artist since he was a child, but only in the last ten years of
awakening from addiction and going through several life changing
tragedies has he really found his true purpose. Mike has had several
shows over the years including a gallery show in Chicago which included
his large scale Elvis Art. He was made it into Rare Visions and
Roadside Revelations on PBS and had a piece included in the traveling
exhibit "Coming Home".
