ANGEL OF THE MUSIC ARTS

24 x 30, Oil, 

NOTES

Okay with me if you don't believe in angels. You can still enjoy the painting:)
But to make my intent clear, this is an angel of music and worship unto God. 

- On top of the left sleeve are different kinds of flutes  
- on  upper right sleeve are paint brushes.
- included ballet slippers for dance and a banner or flag, for artists who do flag work. 
One time I saw a guy dressed in a white shirt and black pants 
in his twenties (?) handling 4 white shiny flags at once -it was pure artistry! 
- for the story on the flutes, 
go to main blog page at end of weekend January 14 (click on right side bar Mysteries)

ACTS TWO

The phenomena described in Acts 2 was always very intriguing to me. 

Always wondered what it would look like to see

a sea of red fiery tongues above people's heads. Never knew 

how to paint it till one day. 

Suddenly I "got" it that it was the dove (symbol of the Holy Spirit) 

descending on people should be center stage, 

and that the visible phenomena were a" by product."

 ACTS TWO. 24 x 30 Oil, StGermain

NOTES

Here the Dove is not a sign of peace

or a sign of new life (Noah)

here, the dove is a sign of fiery consuming power
So enjoyed painting the broad strokes,
the warmth of burnt sienna
lighting up van Dyke Brown and
Payne Grey
the White in motion
a force to reckon with!
