Shield of Faith by Judy Cooley

Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. - Ephesians 6:16

When my daughter reached her teenage years, I wanted her to arm herself daily with the Armour of God to be able to stand strong in her battle against the adversary. Searching for armour to use for her to wear as the model for the painting wasn’t an easy task. Armour is made to personally fit the warrior—isn’t that a great thought? Our own spiritual armour is forged personally in the home, piece by piece, and it’s personally repaired and polished after each battle. The principles taught by each piece of armour are the daily tasks that will protect us in life: truth, righteousness, the gospel of peace, faith, salvation, the Spirit, and the word of God.

JUDY COOLEY is a creator of joy. "My greatest joy and work is being a wife, mother, and grandmother. They are my inspiration." Like a true artist, Judy soaks up the beauties of life. Beyond doing art, she also skis, hikes, teaches yoga, and takes time to deeply study the scriptures. Her goal is to inspire others to find the light within themselves, and her testimony of Jesus Christ shines bright in the subjects she chooses to paint. Much of her artwork focuses on gospel living or, in other words, the true path to joy.

As individuals, we are all drawn, as Paul said, to seek after that which is pure, lovely, of good report, or praiseworthy. For the last 20 years, we at Altus Fine Art have been blessed to work with many artists who have bravely dedicated their talents to create artwork that lifts our hearts and souls and inspires us to live Christ-centered lives.

Our mission is to take this wonderful artwork and create affordable products for the average family or individual while still using quality materials and design. Our prices range from small prints that sell for less than a dollar up to large breathtaking masterpieces that sell for thousands of dollars and everything in between.
