Summary

Anne Reid’s Transfiguration renders a luminous ascent through fields of crimson, orange, and rose, where archetypal figures move toward a radiant meeting in light. The work bridges sacred narrative and universal transformation, offering a contemplative atmosphere that suits homes, hospitality settings, and worship spaces alike.

Artwork Statement

I painted this piece as a passage from shadow into Presence. The warm ground—crimson into ember—carries our human footing; the light opens like a veil. Two ethereal figures appear in the glow while witnesses stand along the path. Whether you read it as the biblical moment on the mountain or as a personal awakening, the invitation is the same: draw near to the light.

Color & Mood

• Crimson, magenta, vermilion → rising warmth and courage
• Peach, blush, pearl white → revelation and serenity
• Cool blue figures → calm counterpoint within the glow
• Overall mood: contemplative, hopeful, quietly radiant

Design Notes

• Soft atmospheric transitions for a mist-through-light effect
• Diagonal procession leads the eye toward the luminous apex
• Generous breathing space at right for modern, minimal interiors
• Works beautifully as a statement piece or paired in a triptych wall

Artist reflection

Fire becomes pathway,
footsteps turn to light.

We look, we listen—
a voice in shimmering air.

What was hidden opens,
and the heart understands.

Scripture (shortened)

“His face shone like the sun… and a bright cloud overshadowed them.” (Matt 17:2,5)
