Three Part Canvas

This piece was created to go along with a message on Luke 8. It was a three part canvas painted on plywood. The imagery in the piece goes along with the images in the passage, much more subtly. There are seeds being scattered, birds of the air eating them up, a lamp on a stand, a mother and her son, etc.

Here is a preliminary sketch:



Each piece represents a different part of the trinity. The bottom represents the Father in it's antiquity and wisdom and bold lines. The middle represents the Holy Spirit ith it's free flowing lines and bright colors. Finally, the top represents the Son with it's physical characteristics and vivid imagery.

Here is a photo of the final piece:
