Converted to the Christian faith in 1981, Rod ministered as Pastor to a small Christian Fellowship for the next 20 years until the death of his first wife Gwen in 2004. These days he paints at a more leisurely pace, painting as a hobby artist, devoting more time to his new wife Lyn. He declares his faith in Christ by signing all of his works with the Christian “fish”.
