"Perspective" Show

PACT (Prayer and Creativity Team) is a group of Christian artists associated with Hill Country Bible Church of Austin, Texas, where they host a series of themed art shows. For more details see http://www.pactofaustin.com/.  The next show, entitled "Perspective," has its opening reception from 7-9PM on Sept. 30.  Below are three of the recent 12" x 12" pieces I have submitted for this show.

Four-Fold (collage/acrylic)

This piece shows the traditional symbols assigned to the Four Evangelists. Each of their historical accounts presents the life and works of Jesus Christ from a different perspective, but all blend together to give us a unified picture of our Lord and Savior.

In Their Own Eyes (collage)

The Book of Judges ends with the words: “In those days there was no king in Israel; all the people did what was right in their own eyes.” As Americans who almost deify the concept of personal independence, we should realize that this statement was not one of approval by God, but a condemnation of the people's actions during that turbulent time period.

Grasshopper Men (collage/acrylic)

The warped perspective of the spies sent into Canaan caused them to characterize the inhabitants as giants and themselves as mere grasshoppers. We sometimes exaggerate the power of the enemy and do not sufficiently take into account God's power over our circumstances.
