A New Moses

30x30
Acrylic on canvas

In this painting is it Moses standing before a burning bush or is it a better Moses emerging from a tomb? It is creation and exodus. It is the freedom from physical slavery and freedom from spiritual slavery.

The promised new Moses needed to teach with authority and bring people out of slavery and into freedom. A new Moses to lead us into the glorious new future.

The light in the center of the painting is surrounded by shadows. The canvas is scarred and etched through the layers revealing what is hidden beneath the surface. Nuance and variation is found in every corner calling you to return to see again and again.

A better Moses has arrived and He is calling you to draw near, to see with curiosity and surrender to the question—who is this better Moses to me?
