Florida Oranges painted for the Fruits Of The Spirit series
Another painting completed today for the Fruits Of The Spirit series I'm creating. This series has been commissioned by the beautiful Lefler family. Thought it would be fun for our RagTag Ruby fans to help us decide which fruit says which spirit.
So far I have the following fruits painted:
Oranges Strawberries Apples Pears Blueberries Lemons Tomatoes Pomegranates
We could use your help matching the paintings up with the following fruits of the Spirit:
Love Joy Peace Patience Kindness Goodness Faithfulness Gentleness Self Control
Additionally if you think of any fruits that especially conjure up particular Fruits Of The Spirit let me know! We discussed painting some biblical fruits but dates and figs look too creepy to me. I'm thinking grapes or olives next!
Let us go early to the vineyards to see if the vines have budded, if their blossoms have opened, and if the pomegranates are in bloom— there I will give you my love.
Just took on a commission to paint the "Fruits of the Spirit" for a precious family that Missy and I both love dearly. Not sure yet which fruits will represent what but I knew that I had to paint a bowl of blueberries!
As I'm working I'm reminded of one of my favorite verses ... "Be strong and courageous and get to work for the Lord my God is with you! He will see to it that everything gets finished correctly ..." 1 Chronicles 28:20
May God bless the work of all our hands in this new year!
