The light shines in the darkness - Collaborative Art Journey #21

This is my first time entering into the Collaborative Art Journey or any collaborative work on Steemit. What a wonderful opportunity for art put together by @everlove. It really is inspiring thinking of artists all over the globe participating and supporting one another.

Here is the base offered for the collaborative piece:

The photo initially lended itself to something otherworldly, which made me pull together the following imagery I might incorporate into my final piece.

As I reflected on the initial offering further, the color contrast of gold and black stood out to me. It almost seemed like one might swallow the other up. And then a bible verse came to mind (John 1:5) which seemed to fit where my thoughts were headed: the battle of light versus darkness and the promise of overcoming.

My final offering for the collaborative piece:

I hope you take the time to check out all of the other artists in collaborative art journey #21, the diversity and creativity is remarkable. @allforthegood
