About "Angel"
Inspired by Matt 18:10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones (refers to humility, etc.); for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven. Pas op dat julle nie een van hierdie kleintjies (verwys na nederiges, ens) verag nie; want Ek s[0xC3AA] vir julle dat hulle engele in die hemele altyd die aangesig sien van my Vader wat in die hemele is.
The background of this painting is a replica of a window in the Dominus Flevit church on the Mount of Olives. Dominus Flevit, which translates from Latin as "The Lord Wept", was fashioned in the shape of a teardrop to symbolize the tears of Christ. Here, according to the 19th chapter of the Gospel of Luke, Jesus, while walking toward the city of Jerusalem, becomes overwhelmed by the beauty of the Second Temple and predicting its future destruction, and the diaspora of the Jewish people, weeps openly. (Luke 19:37-42) En Hy antwoord en s[0xC3AA] vir hulle: Ek s[0xC3AA] vir julle, as hulle swyg, sal die klippe uitroep. En toe Hy naby kom en die stad sien, het Hy daaroor geween en ges[0xC3AA]: As jy tog maar geweet het, ja, ook in hierdie dag van jou, die dinge wat tot jou vrede dien! Maar nou is dit vir jou o[0xC3AB] bedek. Luk 19:40-42
Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who continue to kill the prophets and stone those who are sent to you! How often I have desired and yearned to gather your children together (around me) as a hen (gathers) her young under her wings, but you would not! Luk 13:34

About Christina
Christina Walters I was born and raised on a farm in the Swartland area near Riebeek West
With my art I attempt to express what truth is - something that cannot be measured on the laboratory bench. According to Soren Kierkegaard the truth is what ennobles.
'This is a true story which may well appear stranger than fiction, since the truth unhappily, from the point of view of those who try to serve it, is always more than literal or statistical fact. . . . ' Van der Post , L. 1975. A Mantis Carol. Cox & Wyman Ltd G B
'the morning wind forever blows, the poem of creation is uninterrupted; but few are the ears that hear it' Bode, C., 1975. The Portable Thoreau. Penguin Books
At present I enjoy working on paper with mixed media.
I now live in Strand. I had art training with Catharina de Bliquy, Marie Stander, Marriana Booyens, Vicky Thomas , Andries Gouws, Sarah Simblest and Monique-Day-Wilde.
