The Burning Bush - The Pillar of Fire - The Parting of the Red Sea

THE BURNING BUSH
oil on canvas, 42x54 inches, organic-cubism

When Moses was expelled from Egypt he married and settled in the land of Midian. It was there that he saw a bush burning on a mountainside but the bush was not consumed by the fire. He went up to see why. God spoke to him there and gave him his task to lead his fellow Jews out of slavery in Egypt.

THE PILLAR OF FIRE
oil on canvas, 38x99 inches, organic-cubism

As Moses led the his fellow Jews out of Egypt the Pharoh changed his mind and sent an army to kill or capture the people. As they aproached God sent a pillar of fire to block the Egyptian army.

THE PARTING OF THE RED SEA
acrylic on canvas, triptych 66x144 inches, cubism

When Moses and the Jewish people reached the Red Sea with the Egyptian army behind them blocked by a pillar of fire Moses stretched out his staff and God parted the sea and the people passed over to freedom. This miracle is how the name of the Holy days of "Passover" came to be.
