Curious Christian

Reflections on culture, nature, and spirituality from a Christian perspective

The Garden by Cornelis Monsma

Contemporary Christian art without a religious aftertaste. That’s the tag line of Christian painter Cornelis Monsma, who describes himself as “a modern day self-professed expressionist visual artist [who] seeks to create modern Christian fine art work that aims to visualise the deeper truth of Christianity.”

This painting, inspired by the Song of Songs in the Old Testament, is entitled “The Garden”

You are a garden locked up, my sister, my bride,
You are a spring enclosed, a sealed fountain.
Song of Songs 4:12

    Sally, when I first came across this artist her works reminded me of some of the art you like to showcase. Had a ‘Sally’ feel to them.
