Calling on his name No.1

“Now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name.” (Acts 22:16 NIV) The abstract elements of doors and windows in the painting symbolize a space that leads to God, and also represent the believer’s awakening and redemption through calling on His name. Though inspired by church architecture, these elements, expressed abstractly, transcend physical form and become a passage for the soul to encounter the divine. Orange, warm like sacred fire, symbolizes spirituality and God’s presence; blue, deep like the sky and eternal like the ocean, represents God’s infinity and the believer’s inner peace. Their interaction and harmony on the canvas reflect the tension and response of the human heart when calling on God’s name. When painting becomes a form of worship, the convergence of brushstrokes, colors, and composition is not merely an artistic language but a spiritual practice of calling on God and responding to His grace. As viewers engage with the work, they may sense God’s calling, the liberation of forgiven sins, and the profound encounter with the divine.
