Serenity 1/30 at Vatican

LAGUNA BEACH, Calif., Oct. 29, 2014 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Artist Anne Kerry Swank’s limited edition Angel watercolor photographs series now hangs in the Vatican, Rome, after a twenty-year journey of the artist that began with a morning prayer to God and Divine Inspiration.

“Our Heavenly Father asked me to spread his gospel of salvation through the creation of these images of Angels, his Divine messengers, to make celebration of art communicating and inspiring the human heart to yearn for God’s path. God assured me I would be given vision that heaven was watching over this blessed journey, and he would lead me every step of the way.”

The first limited edition watercolor that was received by His Holiness, Pope Francis, and selected for display is “Serenity,” in green tones, number 1/30. It measures 30×40 inches. The image is a vision depicting an angel that represents the Holy Spirit and God’s peace within. The second limited edition watercolor is “Divine Presence” in sepia tone, number 5/50. It measures 35×35 inches and depicts an angel representing the Holy Trinity.

Dr. Donald Lawrence Jolly-Gabriel saw the Angel images, heard Ms. Swank’s story, and acted as God’s vessel to carry them to His Holiness, Pope Francis, at the Vatican. “I am so grateful,” says Ms. Swank “that the Vatican is displaying this art and delivering the message of Christ.”

“Angels are sent by God to help guide us,” she continues. “With every new undertaking, I pray and ask God to open my vision, guide my hand, and to send an angel to assist. When I choose the colors, an angel guides me. The names come through prayer as well.”

Both images were photographed at the Royal Horse Stables, Christiansborg Castle in Copenhagen, Denmark, and hand colored by the artist.

“These images radiate love, hope and joy. God is only a prayer away. Ask in faith. The messengers are sent by God to guide and help us in all ways.”
