Temptation by Abraham Hunter

Temptation by Abraham Hunter

Temptation AH Chromatics Edit Flat Joomla

 

From the Artist:

I’ve been told that great art flows from great pain. I entered my studio one gloomy day and had been really getting in the mud battling a problem I wish I could say I’ve conquered... anxiety. A scripture I read in Hebrews came to my mind, which says Christ was tempted in all points like we are, yet without sin. It warmed my heart that everything I was facing, Christ already went through and overcame. His time in the wilderness quickly became my next painting! 

I don’t have room to write the whole story but it’s in Matthew 4:1-11 and Luke 4:1-13. Jesus was tempted with hunger and illness from 40 days of fasting. He was tempted with doubts of if he was truly the Son of God. Tested on His knowledge of the scripture and tempted with every conceivable thing of wealth and glory on earth if He only bowed to Satan. In this painting, we see Christ high in the desert, with the stones in front of him tempting him to turn them into bread. We see the temple that was built in Jerusalem and all the kingdoms of the world behind him in the valley. In the dark tangled clouds of confusion, you can see the author of confusion himself, Satan, in the form of a dark cloud seeming to pass through Jesus’ mind, where so many of our hardest fought battles take place. But Jesus is the hero of the story and the inspiration for us all when we are in our wildernesses. Jesus just simply turns away from everything around him and looks up to the light of heaven. 

When I apply this painting to myself, I see the stones as my temptations in life, biggest to smallest. The temple reminds me that man-made religion and religious law without the Spirit and a relationship with Christ is perhaps one of the most overlooked temptations to ensnare one’s life. And when I look at the riches and glory of the kingdoms of the earth, I am reminded that He is my provider and not by the power of my own hand do I prosper.

Artist Notes:

Creating an image that can capture the feelings I experience when I’m in the mountains is something I attempt to do over and over again. In truth, it can’t be captured. The sheer size and scope of the mountains can only be comprehended while standing in their midst. 

Bonnie and I were hiking up in the Tetons a couple of years ago with Colter, and we took hundreds of photos trying to “get it all in,” but nothing seems to ever do it justice.  So, back in my studio, I stretch a larger than life canvas and close my eyes and picture what I felt and saw when I was there. Peeking at a few of those photos, I begin to create a design and arrangement that is what I wish I could find every time I am in the wilderness, and this time the pieces came together in a way that pleased me most. We chose to reproduce “Majestic Solitude” in two grandiose sizes so it would convey the spectacular scale of these creations by God - the Teton Mountains.  The mountains are viewed from the south - looking north from the Taggert Lake Trail area. I hope you get the feeling that I felt when I was there - standing on an edge of a cliff ... soaking in the glory of God and His creation.

Great Smoky Mountain Railroad

From the Artist:

Trains are a great way to get to see the countryside! Train tracks go where no one else can go - as they travel down corridors and passages created just for them, where no car can go and few people have ever seen. I love the experience of train travel having ridden on the famous Durango - Silverton narrow gauge railroad. Here in this fanciful depiction of this narrow-gauge train, we are topping over the grand overlook where no train has gone before - except in our imaginations.  Imagine as the train tops the overlook seeing the beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains for miles and miles.

Artist Notes:

Our journey through life comes in seasons. Sometimes we experience new growth like spring when things are budding and new. Other seasons bring hot summer stillness when we must explore our thoughts and feelings from the pressures of life and seek out some refreshing air or cool water. Often we experience bitterness and cold, but these frigid winds don’t have to be depressing. They can motivate us to bundle up and play, go outdoors with friends or family, make memories with those we love, and spread cheer with those we meet along the way - things you will find in a Community of Warmth.
