“Our guest speaker is a well-known artist, Jeanette Sthamann. Come join us as she
shares her life story.

Jeanette is a visionary artist, wife, and mother of two beautiful kids. She was born and
raised in rural Saskatchewan and now resides in Okotoks, Alberta. It was here in Okotoks
where Jeanette took her first oil painting lessons and studied under a talented artist who
taught her valuable painting techniques. Jeanette also met Jesus for the very first time
through her and gave her life to Him in her art studio! Shortly after, God gave Jeanette a
dream and in it, she saw a book on the cover with one of her first oil paintings, the title
read, “Restoration, this is God’s Love Story.” Jeanette knew after that encounter that God
was using her paintings to reveal His nature and character to her. God has brought much
healing, restoration, and life to Jeanette through her art!

Painting is an act of worship for Jeanette, a lot of her paintings are birthed from her
intimate times with the Lord where He reveals Himself to her through visuals! It’s her
heart for people to be drawn into the beauty nature of the Creator and she is honored
that she gets to be a vessel of His creativity! Jeanette teaches creative workshops and has a
desire to see others receive and release God in creative ways. It always deeply touches
Jeanette to see how personal God is and how He ministers to others through her artwork;
through the gift of creativity.”
