encaustic
12 x 12 inches in a black floater frame
Embedded in this encaustic painting are nets referencing the poem “Banding,” which begins -“The nets of God hang in every wild place.” Also transfered into the beeswax is text in various languages and a large fish. The Scriptural references are many, but the main theme is the sovereign God who lovingly gathers a people from all nations as his bride for eternal glory.
“Thus says the Lord God: I will throw my net over you with a host of many peoples, and they will haul you up in my dragnet.” Ezekiel 32:3
