The Artist Spirit

Betty Slade, Artist

The Master Artist speaks. He opened my human heart and His paintbrush danced across the recesses of my dark soul.

The canvas surrendered, love awakened and a new creation began. And the Master Artist dipped His brush into the paint and gently wrote His name upon my soul. "I have set you as a seal upon My heart, as a seal upon My arm." Song of Solomon 8:6 "Now you must set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon arm, for love is as strong as death."

Jennifer with the Green Eyes

Song of Solomon 1:5 "I am dark, but lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, Like the tents of Kedar, Like the curtains of Solomon. Do not look up me, because I am dark, Because the sun has tanned me. My mother's sons were angry with me; They made me the keeper of the vineyards, but my own vineyard I have not kept."


Jennifer with the Green Eyes (Oil 24X30)

Portrait in Paint! I do not know if I can trust you. How do I know that you have love for me alone? You ask me to leave what I know  and come to you. I am dark, how could you love me? My brothers accuse me of not working in their vineyard. My own vineyard is barren, I have nothing you should want.

The Master Artist's Responds, "My love, it is not what you see, it is what I see. I see you beautiful. Your beauty is my my eyes. I love you with an everlasting love. I only ask that you respond to me."

How can I respond when I know how beautiful others are. I have nothing to give you. Leave me to my vineyard, leave me to my father's house.

"I can not leave you alone. I have heard your heart cry for satisfaction. When you work in your brother's vineyard, you only wished the day to be over. I love you too much to leave you in your barren state. Allow me to paint you from my spiritual palette, I know the true color of your complexion. I see it in your eyes. You desire the water that only I can give you. Trust me, surrender to me. My love, My spouse.
