Artist bio

The work I present may illustrate many directions, however it remains consistent to Christian moral standards. I use digital enhancement, photography, painting, and more to construct and create my art. God is an artist. He creates and manipulates His surroundings making infinite space to marvel; this plan gives me inspiration. Starting in art through photography, I use editing to make my statements resolute. Staying within the two-dimensional plain I expanded my ideas of the world to incorporate the sometimes-philosophic field. The goal is developing work that shines in the darkness, growing my art beyond the surface. My work becomes more than just a design, incorporating mediums and elements of digital illustration and painting techniques. Recently working with videography has added new elements to my work, discovering how a moving image can change perspectives and how audio can be mastered to it. God’s work in me is infinite; it touches many Christian ideas while remaining constant to moral standards. Once I make a decision as an artist, directions start to opening up for designs and art that is more diverse. Fields such as painting, digital illustration are just the start in creating more of a narrative to achieve a deeper understanding into the creative and artistic world. Once I discovered my abilities to work within these fields, I soon discovered better ways to pair them and mix them together. Photography, painting and computer editing made the best statements for my work, and relate to the work God has presented that guide my direction of work. Scott C Fisher

Title

No Fear (Armored)

Artist Statement

Was praying and meditating about the Armor of God when I got inspired by a related verse Psalms 91: 1-12. This verse that inspired me I knew was special and had to be a inspirational video. In order for me to capture all the emotions, changes of thought and the proper picture I imagined it had to be video. Recently working with video, I was taught to separate the audio from the video. The difficulty comes in putting all the pieces together and adding in just the right elements at the time you need them to convey the message you intended. However, digital media and photo video have been my favorite from the beginning, always wanted to produce visuals that looked and felt as if you were there.

How it fits into contest

Was praying and meditating about the Armor of God when I got inspired by a related verse Psalms 91: 1-12 some of the same symbols; we are seeing arrows by day, forces that are with in the world plagues and pestilences that are waged against in the flesh and bone. However, I say lets take this a little further, we should not fear in the battle the war should not hold us back. That is what this it is all about in Psalms 91, in life, putting on the full Armor of God, the Peace, the Love, and the truth in the salvation of Christ.

Transcript / Lyrics

Waging war on these wars waged!
Peace be preached, sword staged,
Love be reach, bullets caged,
Truth be teached, weapons staved,
for the salvation in Christ is outstretched
Armor Waived!

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord,
“He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”
Surely he will save you
from the fowler’s snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.

A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.

You may not even strike a foot against a stone!

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord,
“He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”
Surely he will save you
from the fowler’s snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
He shall cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you shall find refuge.
You shall not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrows that fly by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that comes at midday!

A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it may not come near you.
You will only see with your eyes
and behold the punishment of the wicked.

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord,
“He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, on whom I trust.”
Surely he will save you
from the fowler’s snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness.
You will not fear the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks just in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.

A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it may not come near you. No Sir
You may only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
You may only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
