Paige Payne is a painter whose life and art have been shaped by a journey across Canada, Scotland, and the United States—and by a deep personal faith that began in her earliest, most difficult moments. She has loved creating since she was old enough to hold a paintbrush, eventually earning her Fine Arts degree with an emphasis in painting. Her work is profoundly influenced by her experiences with anxiety, depression, and OCD, and she is passionate about creating pieces that help others feel seen, understood, and never alone. Paige’s art became her safe place long before it became her profession, and today she considers it a blessing to share that refuge with the world. Since graduating in 2019, she has built a thriving creative studio rooted in worship, vulnerability, and connection—grateful each day for the people who invite her artwork into their homes and support the dream she and her husband, Michael, have built together.

Story Behind the Art
Story Behind the Art
This painting was inspired by the hymn ‘Master, The Tempest Is Raging’ kept coming to my mind, specifically these few lines, ‘And I perish! I perish! dear Master. Oh, hasten and take control! The winds and the waves shall obey thy will: Peace, be still.’ This song makes me think about all the times in my life where I felt like I was in a tempest, being tossed to and fro. It makes me think of the many times I have looked to Christ with tears running down my face, saying ‘I am perishing. Help me. I’m all alone, no one understands, I need you now.’ Ironically it’s in those moments, when I have felt the most lonely, that I have had some of my most sacred experiences with Him.
When I see this painting I am reminded that after the storm, always comes peace. Peace from Him. The peace that passeth all understanding. The peace that I have only ever found through Him. Whether you are in the middle of a storm, just coming out of one, or can see one approaching, I hope this painting can help you to feel and remember the peace He brings. I know that the One who can calm oceans and storms can surely calm the storms in our hearts and our minds, for even the winds and the waves obey Him.
