I've never seen Mike paint live before, but we do have an artist paint every Sunday at my church. Even though we don't have someone as talented as Mike painting, it is still a powerful experience. It's actually not that hard to get started at your church. You'd be surprised how many artists are doodling out in the pews who'd be touched to share their gifts in that way.

Whether it be from a distance, from around a corner, out in the open or from behinde a bookstand. I beleive that you could not help but be pulled into this painting. It simply calls you from the screen while watching from the computor...I cannot imagine how powerful it would be to see in person. Maybe I will get the chance one day to experience this for myself. What a gift you have been given Mike. You are blessed and you bless others. God is good!

This was something I didn’t get to enjoy when I saw him live. [...] [...] The intensity on Mike’s face as he paints shown in the close ups.

I am really flattered that you guys would say these things. I REALLY must say that I did not earn my status. It was a GIFT. Therefore anyone influenced by me is really directly influenced by God. I still don't like it when people steal my exact images. I just pray that it won't get out of hand. Billy, I wanted to ask if you would be willing to review my new DVD. It is called the OneWay project. Email me from my site if you are interested and I will mail you one. Thanks, Mike Wow! I am really flattered that you guys would say these things.

How can you be in contemporary (not nec. modern) Christian art today and not be influenced in some way by Mike Lewis. Yeah.

I've see straight up plagiarized versions of Mike's work. It was not cool. Lewis,

He's pretty sweet. Have you seen <a href="http://www.paintingjesus.com/" rel="nofollow">The Sand Painter, Mark Demel</a>? He doesn't have it on the site, but his sand art was amazing! Good interview.

As an artist myself, seeing Mike paint has really tempted me to dust off my brushes and markers and help spread the gospel. Mike has been a great inspiration to me.' I see you record on a Palm too.....I'm begining to record a podcast on my Palm TX. I'll keep you posted. :) Thanks for the interview!

I love staring at one of Mike's paintings at church. Although I've only seen a recorded worship painting, I must say I am moved everytime I see Mike's painting at Woodmont. Great interview.
