The Tunnel

There is so much to be said about this painting! I truly was the Lord's vessel for this creation. I thought that my day of painting was over but found that there was still one more to be completed. He had me mix the colors and directed each brush stroke. When I saw what it was that I was painting, I literally knelt down before it and cried.

Then, when I thought that we were finished, He had me take the smallest, finest brush that I had and lay each fine stroke into the corner, which became the angel that is beginining to come into view. Then He had me mix gold paint and told me to paint what looked like random strokes in the very center. When I was finished, he had me lightly brush it out to mix in with the blue background. This becomes the face of Christ when viewed at the perfect angle, and in the right light. The result is this one of a kind, original that leaves me breathless every time I look at it.

It represents the Tunnel that so many near-death accounts tell of and I experienced as well. The color of violet is the same as that of the room that I saw. The tunnel is short, but depicts that we need not be afraid of our own mortality...and that the best is yet to come!

I won't be quick to let this one go but I'd love to know your thoughts.
