Artist Statement

This painting represents the fire or shield that is created around me when I pray. The prayer energy is so strong it literally creates heat and feels like fire!

How it fits into contest

At times we say a word of prayer over ourselves to create a protective shield or armor, so that no weapon formed against shall prosper.
