Psalm 17:7-8 

From the blog post about this painting: "... I have been working on a pair of new paintings ...  They are so similar to each other, and will work well either as a diptych or individually. They both are paintings about being hidden or covered. The ideas I was mulling over as I worked had more to do with these synonyms for "hide": harbor, shelter, provide safety, cover, safeguard. Also, I though of hiding, or tucking away something precious or carrying a keepsake in a pocket, close and hidden. ... There are little sections of the painting that have iridescent copper accents "hidden" in with the other colors. The copper is there to be seen, but it is not the first thing you see when you look at the painting. To me, these accents are the perfect finishing touches, without which the painting seems incomplete." Click here to read more.
