Amazing Grace

Close up

Acrylic on 5x7 hardboard.

This is my contribution to this week's DPW The Color Of Music Challenge. The challenge was issued by the very accomplished artist, Lesley Spanos.
She said: Your challenge this week is to paint a favorite piece of music. Interpret what you hear with pigment. The only rule is that you must tell us the title of the song you painted.

I chose "Amazing Grace" as my song to paint.

The chorus:
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

The words caused me to think of the homeless man...who, in this world, has fallen as low as he can go. But Christ gave his life so that this lowly man may be forgiven of all by Grace.
This painting symbolizes the once blind man seeing the way to Heavenly Glory!
This same great gift is freely available to us all!
