Steve R. Skipper is a talented and successful artist, one of the first African-Americans to break into the art world. His works hang in impressive venues worldwide. His Christian and sports works are highly prized by collectors, museums, and institutions. Prints of his creations have sold in the tens of thousands of copies. Yet as a teenager, Skipper was a member of a vicious gang, the Crips, and was their drug-debt enforcer. His life of violence and drugs hardly foretold that he would one day paint portraits of famous athletes or that his Christian creations would inspire so many. Then one night he attended a revival church service on a dare, only to have a powerful religious experience. He quit the gang the next day and began working to right his life while developing his self-taught--or as he maintains God-taught--ability with paints and canvas. That, however, was just the beginning. Steve R. Skipper's amazing true story will give hope and encouragement to anyone who reads it. And the reproductions of his works in this book will inspire many more. This book tells his amazing, true story and presents his powerful testimony of determination, salvation, strength through Christ, and deliverance from the demons that held him back, just as they do so many others.
