From the desk of Steve Shultz:
Prophetic artists often draw and paint visions straight from the throne of God and have a "view point" many of us haven't seen...yet.
I often think prophetic artists are underlooked and their gifts aren't recognized for the true treasures of Heaven that they really are.
If you are an artist, you need to read this word by Nathan Shaw of New Zealand as he shares:
Often we think of prophecy in terms of words that declare the future. But the spirit of prophecy can also inspire artists to paint things that are yet to come. The dream highlights three important realities. Firstly, a greater prophetic anointing is coming on art and artists. Secondly, prophetic art will reveal things that will literally take place. Thirdly, prophetic art will be used to open up realms into the knowledge of God.
Now that's exciting...I encourage all of you artists to let that creative flow from the Lord expound as you put God on display in your gifts and talents! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

Dream of an Artist's Studio
In my artistic dream I was in an artist's display studio, and directly in front of me displayed on an easel was a painting of a broad valley. The valley rose gradually into hills and mountains on either side and also into the distance. It was tussock country – rustic, barren and beautiful. In the exact center of the valley was a road which disappeared into the distance. The road merged perfectly with the scenery, almost as if it was suppose to be there. Under the painting the caption read, "This road doesn't exist...yet."

An Increased Anointing on Art and Artists
The first artist mentioned in the Bible is Bezalel. God says of Bezalel: "And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, to design artistic works, to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in cutting jewels for setting, in carving wood, and to work in all manner of workmanship" (Exodus 31:3-5). To perform his tasks, Bezalel was filled with the Spirit. Art and anointing...(continue reading)
