Artist Statement

Step 1 The board is prepare with a magnet set beneath the blue side of the board.
Step 2 preparation of resin; I tint two different blue acrylic colors and white while on the other side I tinted the portion of resin in 4 colors back, red, yellow and orange. I then pour and manipulated the movement to show darkness reaching out to the girl.
Step3 I mix another portion resin with magnetic gold color powder and pour only where the magnet is place beneath and manipulate to create the Holy Spirit of God.The results is fabulous bec it gives a hologram effect. I let it dry 24 hours and then painted the figures depicting the verses Of Ephesians with posca pen and liquid gold metal leaves.

How it fits into contest

The clash of blue/white agst red /yellow/ black
Signifies the clash of good and evil. The figure in black standing in the orange red black part of painting represent verse 12 “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” The

While the girl in the gold armor kneeling and praying clutching a cross is representing verse 13 “ Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand” and verse 18 “ And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.”

The gold aura behind her is the Spirit of Gold empowering her as she pray against the Enemy before her.
