I can totally see how this won an award, Matt. This is hopeful, spiritual, sad, thought-provoking, happy, hopeful - so many different things in one. Your art intertwines the divine with the limitless expanse of timeless human imagination in a touching way. Well, done!
Matt Konar replied:
Thank you Chance ~ this was painted during a time of hope . . . fortunately for our daughter and our family Christ was faithful . . .
Randy Burns
Congratulation on your award. No wonder. Your signature constellation images really have got it going Matt. I can imagine your work in a gallery all together in the series. The other night your constellation images popped into mind. That is true art. F/L.
Brian Tada
If Jesus walked the earth again, He would look like the One in your beautiful painting, Matt... In fact, He very much is today, living in our hearts as we are His hands and His feet. Another masterpiece... love your Gold Medal artistry. Congratulations on your Best of Show award! F/L
Matt Konar replied:
Thanks Brian, yes, we who faithfully keep His words of Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Gentleness, Kindness and Self-Control ... are definitely walking the earth in His name.

Like the story - It's like telling us Jesus is putting Himself down to our level and takes us on wherever we are born in and our circumstances...What a God we have! I feel pretty emotional about this one cos it's truly depicting His character as a God of Love! Beautiful job, Matt! F/v
Anthony Mwangi
The skies are a whole new story by themselves. I like the way you have things happening up there. It is like giving one cost for two. A story in the heavens and a story on earth!
