for themselves they have seen my strength
watched me rise from darkness into light
a silent royal flight wings dripping blood
chasing the last of them from the earth
the demon monsters bound in chains
hunting through the dark of night
sending them fleeing one by one
cast down to a shadowy death
the fate they had earned

"But for you who fear My name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings"

Malachi 4:2 

Often only through pain do we find our redemption.  Choosing to believe that there can be a resurrection every time we fall.  This drawing represents the sacrifice of Jesus for us willingly giving up his life to save us for all eternity, and his ultimate triumph over death as the grave to this day is still empty.  The horse is ready to rise from the pool of blood in which he is standing, wings posed ready to take flight out of the pain which still clings to his legs.  We too can have this and rise above our pain if we only just believe.

Silver Wings

The beauty of a winged horse standing firm against the darkness that surrounds.  Wings posed in strength to erupt into flight with the knowledge that the darkness cannot keep him bound as he is free.  This drawing attempts to capture that still moment when strength rises and all things are possible, even stories that reside in legend and myth.

"Believe in legend.  Believe in myth.  Believe in miracles.  

Believe in love.  Believe in the unexpected.  Believe in hope.

Believe in the undiscovered.  Believe in dreams.  Believe in God."
