In this painting, the window of heaven provides a view of a bright new world full of hope and stands in the river of the world (blue) between hell (red) and evil (black).
The rough-sided black granite represents the temptations, struggles, weaknesses, sorrows, and trials of this life. The imperfect, battered, and marked hands . . . are made of steel to reflect the strength of character it takes to rise above the chaos.
The Window of Heaven
In this painting, the window of heaven provides a view of a bright new world full of hope and stands in the river of the world (blue) between hell (red) and evil (black).
