Title

Protection in Peace and Suffering

Medium/Genre

Painting

Artist Statement

This piece of artwork was painted on un-stretched canvas. In the process to create it, part of the canvas was painted with Gesso, while parts of it were not giving a background effect of some brighter colors, did a couple of layers, but mostly kept the painting as rough as it is.

How it fits into contest

The piece of art works into the contest topic for, the fact there is a battle going on within our souls for peace during times of peace as well as in times of suffering. Satan can punce at any time, or distract us, or try to harm us so the armor of God is needed. The armor: the sword, shield, helmet, belt and shoes, represents the full armor of God and in the background it shows a peaceful sunsetted land and on the other hand is a dark city. The armor is protecting people within both times for the enemy can strike at any time. Through the protection of righteousness (the breastplate), truth (the belt), peace (the shoes), faith (the shield), salvation (the helmet), and the word of God (which is the sword of the spirit). Giving people the peace and protection that they need at all times.
