2 Timothy 1:7. Painting With Light- scripture text infused sacred art

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind ADDRESS 2 Timothy 1:7

Painting With Light

Artist Mark Lawrence developed the Painting With Light technique in 2006 with a desire to express God’s word more deeply through his modern spiritual art. The unique Painting With Light process re-renders his art using a selected Bible verse as a digital paintbrush.

The technique relies on a time-intensive software process that first analyzes the original artwork, and then uses the words of the selected verse to paint the digital canvas. The process colorizes each letter and word from the verse and renders them in overlapping copies, millions of times across the canvas. Some works take up to two full days before the one-of-a-kind new canvas has been completely- Painted with Light.

From a distance, the scripture text brush strokes of pigment and color blend together much like a Seurat painting. Upon closer examination however, the millions of overlapping words of the inspiring Bible verse reveal a new dimension of complex beauty and deeper meaning to the now scripture-infused sacred modern artwork.
