Sword of the Spirit - Prophetic Art by Gwen Meharg


I painted this one several years back. It was one of the first prophetic pieces I ever did. It was in a season when I knew NO ONE who was painting this way. I love this gentle painting of a powerful subject. Because it was done in such isolation it has a very special place in my heart. There are many layers of paint and many layers of meaning. The sword is also a cross. The primative nature of the piece adds to its mystery.
