This paining was created using acrylic paints and outlined in a ink pen

as i look at this picture i see more and more that i did not intentionally include. there are people caught up in the praise and joy of the power of god 

06 drum worship power

The worship at the mini burn in bradford today was amazing. we seeked our heavenly farther and praze our hearts out. We felt God drawing us outside so Stepping out of the buildings we went to the park with a drum a guitar a violin and some flagaroons. The sun was shinning and the sky was blue and we worshiped on the grass. people watched us as the walked there dogs and it was really good. Our worship lifted the atmosphere and we were given spontaneous songs and tonges this is a peice of art that came from today it was what I felt happening in the spirit God bending light to make colour and sound. Praze God 

005 man on fire

005 man on Fire. Drawn on paper with crayons and felt tips 

My interpretation. The nameless faceless generation of normal people who do amazing things for others. Unsung heroes not looking for human recognition or reward. Knowing its all for the farther.

"But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." (Matthew 6:6 NIV)

004 earth eye

003 earth eye: Made with scissors coloured card paper and glue

My interpretation: Earth is in the eye of God. he takes delight in our light shining out. like a beacon our faith should shine and our hearts burn with love and honour to God. Praise for Jesus who took our shame away by his blood. we worship

^{Hebrews 4:} 

¹² For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. ¹³ Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

003 Tree

003 Canvas and Acrylics
My Interpretation: what i see is a tree with 2 sides. on one side the tree is alive and lush with fruit and leaves, but on the other side only dead and dry broken branches. a person in the middle is flying trough the sky a trail of colour and vibrance behind him into a watery splash of movement. 

Revelation 22 1-2

Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb ² down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. 

002 Light and Sound

002 light and sound : drawn on paper with felt tipped pens

My Interpretation: some say 'you always seem to draw explosions thats scary and destructive.'

that is not what this is about. This was done while sat at the back in church while the praising and worshiping was happening. I felt the lord was blasting away new sections of old stale ground for the new stuff. My God is alive and active and erupting. How can God contain his love for his creation? this is an expression of his light and sound. 

Zechariah 9:9

¹⁴ Then the Lord will appear over them;
    his arrow will flash like lightning.
The Sovereign Lord will sound the trumpet;
    he will march in the storms of the south,
¹⁵     and the Lord Almighty will shield them.

001 Light Man

001 Light man: Painted on canvas in acrylic paint. 

My interpretation: i was feeling a passion for God welling up inside me and expanding out to breaching point. the griped hands and posture bracing an overwhelming build up of the holy spirit. the light and energy blasting from the chest and face was part of what i imagine moses looked like after having some face time with God 

Exodus 34:29

⁹ When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant law in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the Lord.
