Fire and Fur

Fire and Fur vividly illustrates the dramatic moment from Judges 15:5, where Samson employs a daring and unconventional strategy to confront his enemies. This dynamic oil print captures the intensity of the scene as Samson, depicted with commanding presence, releases a pack of foxes, their tails ablaze, into a blazing environment. The fiery background symbolizes the chaos and fervor of the conflict, while the foxes, ignited by divine intervention, carry the flames across the landscape, igniting the fields of the Philistines.

The artwork’s bold brushstrokes and fiery palette evoke a sense of urgency and divine power at work. The juxtaposition of Samson’s resolute stance with the chaotic blaze of the foxes creates a powerful visual narrative of divine retribution and strategic brilliance. Fire and Fur serves as a striking reminder of the dramatic and miraculous ways in which divine will can turn the tide of battle, reflecting both the raw strength of Samson and the formidable nature of his divine mission.
