01. The Big Bad Dove

"The Big Bad Dove" is the first NFT from my project "Thank You Father".

The artwork mirrors God's image through a protective father who is battling the evil of the world in order to create a safer environment for his child.

Through his demeanor the father acts as an example to his child just as God does as his ideal. In that sense, the symmetry of the halo creates a metaphysical surrounding by warping the architecture in the background to get a connection between the metaphysical and the physical world.

We can see two demonic creatures behind the man, and one of them is resembling a wolf with exaggerated features.

The painting is illustrating the following bible verse: Matthew 10:16 "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves."
