I’ll bet that’s gorgeous! That’s why I included image #5: it’s unrelated to the text, but I just wanted everyone to see what they look like.

I expect that's spectacular.
On our honeymoon in 1978, I gave my wife a pair of myrtle-wood candlestick holders. They still stand tall on our dining room table.

It’s interesting how the LORD gave Zechariah an interactive vision that allowed him to make suggestions.

You have me at a loss. Where did Zechariah make a suggestion?

To: Hebrews 11:6
Where did ZECHARIAH make a suggestion? 3 Now Joshua was dressed in filthy clothes as he stood before the angel. 4 The angel said to those who were standing before him, “Take off his filthy clothes.” Then he said to Joshua, “See, I have taken away your sin, and I will put fine garments on you.” 5 Then I said, “Put a clean turban on his head.” So they put a clean turban on his head and clothed him, while the angel of the LORD stood by.

I am not a fan of digital art but here Ted Larson validates it. I have 2 crepe myrtle bushes, different colors, and now they are taller than my house. In bloom they are spectacular.

Wonderful! I had forgotten—many thanks for pointing it out. Now you have me wondering whether there are other instances of that. I’m sure from now on I’ll always be on the lookout for it.

Ted Larson made this thread—he was the only artist I found who has taken real interest in Zechariah’s prophecies. In 220 previous threads, I don’t recall one where a single artist so predominated.

I have a question for you and anyone who cares to comment.
Rembrandt is extolled widely as a giant, one of the two or three greatest painters ever--at least, that is my perception of the consensus. I just don't see it. I've now seen 10-20% of his works, and generally I find them dark, poorly composed, and uninspiring--albeit with occasional flashes of brilliance, such as the one I featured about the handwriting on the wall.
Admittedly, I am a complete ignoramus about art--I know that because I can compare and contrast my understanding of it with other subjects I do understand deeply.
So, my question is: what do you, whose art knowledge and experience I respect, think about Rembrandt?

Rembrandt was a brilliant artist, but definitely a product of his time and culture.
As for Bible Illustrations, I am more edified by Tissot, even though more “sophisticated” art critics might consider his work to be “Sunday School Kitsch”.
Oils were a new medium in Rembrandt’s day, and he was a master at it, especially when painting faces.
Perhaps that is why you liked the “Handwriting” painting, because the emotions on the face of the king were so compelling.
Some artists, I don’t “get” at all.
