I am excited to share my recent artwork You Are The Light available on canvas print:
Jesus ordained his disciples to share the good news with all the world by admonishing that “You are the Light of the World,” referring to the light within each of his disciples which they are to unashamedly share he said: “A city set upon a hill cannot be hid.
Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it gives light to all who are in the house.” As an artist, all my artwork is contingent on light. Our eyes are created with the ability to decipher and make meaning out of the light that is seen on every object we look at. Light shapes, molds, and colors everything. Light equips us to see and make sense of everything around us. The Spirit of God is the Light. Lately, as an artist, I am studying light and how it interacts with my artwork to bring more life into the scene. The more I recognize how light interacts with the world around me the better I can capture it in my artwork.
As I go about my day-to-day tasks, I find myself trying to notice the light around me- I often think to myself, “Remember to notice and learn from the light.” This means that while at the gym working out, grocery shopping, or simply on a walk or noticing nature around me, I’m trying to observe the different sources of light in the environment and how they are casting shadows and affecting the appearance of objects around me. When the light of God is found to shine on a person it changes that soul.
Somehow God can see the value in each being and that light can make a person blossom like a flower. Jesus spent time with sinners and those who felt less worthy and taught them the value of a soul is great in the sight of God- he could see the beauty in each of them and in each of us. I want to analyze and learn from the light. Like Van Gogh could capture an old tattered worn chair so beautifully- and elevate that chair into a priceless object. Or a master violinist could pick up an aged and tattered violin and bring out unexpected beauty, we must work on shining our light on all things around us- to see the infinite value of each child of God.
This type of light has the power to change an individual. It changes how we see the world around us. It changes everything. You are the light and I am the light. Let us follow after the light and life of the world. May we shine our light equally on our surroundings- the good and the bad. Order a canvas print to beautify your home.
