‘We were made by a Maker to be makers’.
Brent talks with artist Bruce Herman about his new IVP America book ‘Makers by Nature: Letters from a Master Painter on Faith, Hope and Art’.
In a series of fictional letters, Bruce passes on wisdom to a younger generation. He explores a wide array of practical, philosophical, and theological issues.
Bruce is a painter, writer and speaker. His art has been exhibited internationally and is in public and private collections worldwide. He taught studio art for nearly four decades at Gordon College, where he held the Lothlorien Distinguished Chair in Fine Arts.
