Ephesians Series Key Art
I'm working on a series for this Fall that will cover the entire book of Ephesians. The artwork above will be used to create a bulletin shell, powerpoint bits as well as other promotional hoo ha.
The concept that was given to me by the speaker is oriented around moving from "sitting" with Christ (Ephesians 1:1-3) then moving to "walking" with Christ to "standing" firm in Christ against the enemy. All those concepts are mentioned in Paul's letter to the 1st century Christians in Ephesus.
Much of the letter to the Ephesians is built around how God's kingdom has been revealed to us having been mysteriously hidden in the Old Testament. It was always there, now it's been made clear.
With those things in mind, I was motivated to illustrate breaking the barrier between the earthly kingdom to reveal God's kingdom. I also thought to add a couch (representing sitting) and a tree (metaphorically 'standing' firm). The distance between the two representing walking distance.
I'm considering going adding a sepia tone effect to the broken glass but I'm stopping until I get more input. There are not many things more discouraging than supplying a completed concept as a first draft only to have it radically changed!
