One Who Came on the Waters of Time Series

encaustic wax monotype

12 x 16

2017 A wax monotype is done on a hotplate. I wanted to enhance the transparency and shades of the watery blues on top of an existing oil monoprint, (previously run through a printing press.) The God who created the world by water rescues us from this world of water. "He drew me out of many waters." (Psalm 18:16)

The Roar On the Other Side

oil glazes and mixed media on panel 12 x 12 inches framed in a floater frame In the center of this painting is an image of Durer's Dead Christ. He is roaring! To break curse calls for the thunder of his voice, his voice! Job 26. Under it is a construction diagram explaining how to "plum, to make straight or justify" a building. And above is a figure of the risen One who laid down his life and has taken it up again.
"Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it up again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down on my own initiative. I have the authority to lay it down and I have the authority to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father." John 10:17-18 The title is taken from Suzanne's Rhodes book by the same name.

The Gift Half Understood

oil and wax 12 x 12 inches in black floater frame The gift is so paradoxical. You must die to live; you must be captured in God's nets to be free. We cannot fathom the love of God before eternity to come to suffer and die to rescue those he came to save. The cross is the glory of God.
