Canvas from week five  in the #plunge series at St George’s Church Leeds.

Based on Acts 2:3-4a, “They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them.  All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit…”

In a similar way to the second week of the series about being plunged into the Holy Spirit, I wanted this painting to represent the coming of the Spirit, but also to really stand out from the other canvases.  I used metallics, fluorescent colours, glitter and varnish so that the light would bounce and reflect off the painting, symbolising ‘life’.

Acrylic on canvas with printed acetate, varnish and glitter.
