“Eternity Shield”
“The Lord is my strength and my shield;
My heart trusts and I am helped.”
Psalm 28:7
This is the verse that inspires me so much on this piece. So the cross is made up of four shields and encircled by the eternity circle of protection. This represents the protection that Lord has promises us. The shield is done in orange, golden, and green colors and again accented by 23k gold.

This is done with a purple background. The “C” is done with a slight reminder of the Celtic knotwork.
The inspiration for this piece came from the carpet pages from the “Book of Kells”.
This painting gives the viewer the feeling of looking upward. As if looking upward through a lush forest or jungle and then seeing the light from above.

A wonderful cross with Celtic knots throughout and the symbol in the center tells the story.
