Description
“He got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters; the storm subsided, and all was calm.” Luke 8 : 24
“When reading this account of the calming of the storm in Luke’s gospel, I was struck by the fact that professional fishermen were afraid of the storm. Then one word from Jesus restored calm. How often we feel as if we are in a storm that will overwhelm us, but Jesus provides the peace we need.”
Painting tip: I wanted to create a moody feeling in the sky and sea, so chose an ochre layer of under painting which can still be seen in the final picture. The colour you choose as a base layer has a big effect on the final outcome.” Sue Newham
