Christian Modern Art Is An Expression Of Faith

By Eric Jimenez


It can evoke many emotions, whether abstract or face of Jesus. The artist may define it as a tangible expression of faith. In any case, Christian Modern Art is beautiful, calming and inspires many Christians to pray and follow their belief in God.

Jesus, God and angels are prevalent in many of these paintings. One artist, Thomas Kinade, is considered one of the most collectible of all Christian artists. His works are the tangible way he shares his religious faith with all the world.

There are paintings of Jesus with children and as a shepherd with his flock. His face has a kind, but sorrowful appearance. There are some of Him with the others being crucified on either side of Him. In one abstract the cross is painted in tiny squares of blue color against a bright background of red.

There are gold crosses outlined in blue and on wildly colored backgrounds. Jesus is shown in various poses. He is depicted in red on a black or multicolored background. The sorrow is apparent in his body language on these.

The words of various bible verses are done in patterns of all kinds. They may be sad and monotone or bright cheery messages of hope. People can find one of these showing a favorite verse from the bible.

Angels are always a favored figure in Christian paintings and on Christmas trees. They are beautiful and glowing, in pristine white robes with halos on their heads. Others are shown helping people to carry heavy burdens throughout difficult journeys. They sometimes are shown as caricatures from childrens stories.

Sometimes startling outbursts of color jump out at the eye from the abstracts. Lovely stylized flowers may bloom with blossoms growing towards heaven. Dark, monochrome pictures show Jesus on the cross. Each one is a personal rendition of the painters grief over the crucifixion.

As a joy and inspiration, they can have a different meaning to each person looking at them. Many show circles and some see this as the circle of life from birth to death. Others may see this circular pattern as a symbol of eternity.

The secular abstracts created by Jackson Pollock are popular. The religious abstracts are seen in many homes, both as religious symbols and beautiful art. One Christian artist, Mark Lawrence, creates paintings using a unique digital method. He calls this lovely medium painting with light.
