“Bruised Reed” 2023 Painting

Inspired by the poetic imagery of the biblical passage "A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out" (Isaiah 42:3), this watercolor piece embodies themes of resilience, healing, and divine grace. The abstract expressionism employed in this artwork seeks to convey the ethereal nature of spirituality and the transformative power of light. Each brushstroke represents a journey towards healing and restoration, mirroring the delicate yet enduring strength of a bruised reed. Through the interplay of colors and forms, I aim to evoke a sense of hope and positivity in viewers. Just as the bruised reed is not broken but nurtured, I hope viewers will be inspired to find strength in their own vulnerabilities and embrace the light of divine love. Watercolor was chosen for its fluidity and transparency, allowing for the creation of luminous and ethereal effects that capture the essence of divine presence. The abstract style lends itself to interpretation, inviting viewers to engage with the artwork on a deeply personal level and discover their own meanings within its layers of symbolism and emotion.
