"Bendice A Jehova"

($250.00......10" x 22".....mounted on a 1.50" depth clayboard)

"With all my heart I will praise His holy name." The scripture verse is from Psalm 103 in the New Living Translation. It was created for an exhibit at Hill Country Bible Church with a theme of "Visual Rhapsody". You are all invited to the Opening Reception tonight from 7:00 to 9:00. Check out the invitation at our website...pactofaustin.com

All of the many collages you have been seeing formed the basis of most of my larger works for this exhibit. In the piece today you can see how it looks in a larger more expanded version. You can have a chance at receiving one of those 4 x 6's tonight. We have well over a 100 of them (created by myself and some of the other participating artists.)  Be there early and you can be part of the drawing.

The striking part of this piece is the color selection. There are two sets of complementary colors...the turquoise and orange...as well as the magenta and green.By placing these two sets of complementary colors right next to each other and in several combinations, the color rhythm of the piece was established. I used expressive writing for the main quote. The expanded part of the same verse and a different translation were written in Spencerian script in both English and Spanish. And there you have it...just a few more things to think about. Please contact me personally to inquire about this piece.
