«Prodigal son» Painting

At first glance - cold, poverty, dirt, pigs all around and no hope in the heart. This picture is about a man who was allowed to do his will and live as he pleased, and it was this life to the fullest that brought him to this state. But if you look closer and deeper - there is Hope. The One who gave him free will, who watched him all the time, how this man spends his life and the property that was given to him, is still waiting for Him. He waits until he wants to hear what this Someone wants to tell him - "Now you are dead - but I am able to revive you, I will accept and change you, come back!" This Someone is the true Father of this man, and of many such men and women. Those who, having the freedom to choose, chose their own path, apart from Him. And He does give the right to this, because He never interferes with the will of a person, but expects a voluntary decision. And just like this man in the picture, they look either physically or spiritually, until they want to hear and accept the One who, watching all the time, is so full of love that He can forgive, accept and restore. The story of the man in the picture did not end, he was saved, returned to the Father, and was received with joy. This is a picture about hope, about great, all-encompassing Love, and She asks the question: "Are you alive?"
