ryan's peace....finished commission

36x24x2

gallery wrapped canvas

mixed media

finally i am done! whew, this quickly became a hard one to finish.

but i am so glad i can now say it is done. they are picking it up

this afternoon. i couldn't pin point why i was struggling to finish

it. then i realized that i needed more space. so i put it on the

floor and it all came out. i had a sketch that i loved, but every

time i sat down to paint, i froze. then depression set in. you

know how it is you see the picture, but you cant get it wear

your vision is, on your canvas. ah finally, it came.

this is a gift for a son and husband. his favorite scripture

is ephesians 6:13-17...

"Therefore, take up the full armor of God,
so that you will be able to resist in the
evil day, and having done everything,
to stand firm."

like my home series, i used the color block on the side and

had all intensions to use the eph. 6:13-17, but i wanted something

a bit softer. so i added wings. i am always so inspired by

christine mason millers wings. hers are so comforting

and spiritual. i have some girls who earned their wings.

so these seemed to meld into the piece.

anywhoo. he is done and ready to go to his new home.

happy weekend!

peace.
