The Balancing Act

Created with free resources and stocks from Deviantart.com then layered in photoshop CS3.

I was inspired to create this image as so many people are struggling to balance good and evil in this world.

(Mat 12:35) A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.

    Strange blending of Tarot Archetypes.
    The Fool and the Justice.
    Beautiful…though the image tends to look to the good side rather than evil side.
    So then….not balancing really the dicothomy. Unless the evil will beat…or unbalance the White….
    Misterious and imagination.

    Outstanding image and such a true statement…We are all balancing not only the Good and Evil but with the way the world is going today we are struggling and balancing so many other things as well that would also follow this image. Excellent work. I love your creativeness!

    Oh… I am sorry.
    It is one of my analogies about your images with the ones of Tarot of Marseille.
    And yours depict both The Fool and The Justice….the first by the Pierrot dress that she is wearing…and the second by the way she is holding the Devil and TheAngel. It seems she is having and ballancing an scale in her hand. And as you see The Justie is always looking sraighforward…she is not… she is looking towards the angel…so she has chosen…the Good..so… the Evil will show off just to make her see that there is not way for choosing..but balancing
    Sorry ….I cannot tell anything more…. but the fact is that I love very much your work.

    A very powerful piece of art, that speaks a profoundly true message. Stunning detail and well thought out.

    God has given all mankind freedom of Choice. Each person has the right to chose good or evil, to Embrace Jesus as Lord or reject him and his teachings, and go the way of the devil and follow his teachings and evil. You cannot have both.
    Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and Mammon [money].

    Many think that if they ignore God and the devil, that they are OK and they will live life to the full. This is a lie. God says “There is a way which seems right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.[Proverbs 14:12 ].

    This Stunning image reminds me of another scripture as I see the persona holding Jesus in one hand and the devil on the other.
    Daniel 5:27 “TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting”.

    This art piece tells all who see it to Chose wisely for if we reject Jesus here on earth He will reject us on judgement day.
    Josua 24:15 Choose you this day whom ye will serve.

    Wow Sister, this really has got me on fire with Passion for God and to share with others what I see in this awesome art.

    Ah! The balancer is in the middle, which means? I think it means you can’t have your salt without your pepper.
