Prayer
This picture represents prayer to me because it shows a powerful and holy dove made of fire flying a message through time between earth and heaven. There are lots of other patterns around it such as a triangle to represent the trinity and nails on the third, never quite reaching the curvy line, which symbolises prayer protecting us as God can never be killed (even though Jesus sacrifices with nails on a cross, he did not die). There are also brown and green four leaf clovers on the wrist to represent life. Death and luck as these are other things like prayer which can have a big impact on our lives even though they are not physical. In the ring finger, I have created an optical illusion as it appears that the bendy lines are ovals when actually it is just because the dots cross over. When I created, it focused my mind just like prayer does. I hope others do the same when they look at it. Also sometimes it is confusing to know whether prayers have been answered or whether they are just an illusion. I have drawn designs on a hand because hands are traditionally used in prayer and they are a strong sign on humanity.
