OSWALD’S ARTWORK

The portrait of Beethoven, the sketch of his teenage friend, George Oxer, and the turbulent seascape reveal Oswald’s passages in discovering God’s calling. His desire to serve God through art, music and literature was redirected into becoming a Christian minister – something he vowed never to do. He told George Oxer, “I shall never go into the ministry until God takes me by the scruff of the neck and throws me in.”
