Devi Anne Moore, Artist

Art of Revelation

Devi Anne Moore is an inspirational spiritual artist who also teaches in her studio, Bezalel Studio. She holds a BFA in painting from Tyler School of Art, Temple University, an MFA in studio art from Old Dominion University, and an MA in Theology from Regent University, where she teaches Engaging the Arts. She is most noted for her amazing art of the entire Book of Revelation, art now available in seven eBooks. These eBooks are a phenomenal way of meditating on the verses as they correlate to the images, and they make great gifts.

From an early age Devi describes herself saying, “I knew I was an artist since the age of 12.”   Even in the 70’s while in art school, she was told painting was dead, but she refused to believe that and continued to teach herself what was not taught in the school. As a result, she learned a special way to teach others fine art. She says, “I feel that artists are perpetual students who love to learn and grow in their areas of interest. It is a journey just like faith. What excites her as an artist is the desire to express faith and spiritual understanding in a visual way. Her art gives a visual platform for the invisible, sometimes with provocation since Art gives rise to a dialogue about controversial things. “

Her award winning work has been exhibited widely within the national art community in museums, galleries, universities, art centers, and co-ops. The art has also been featured in magazines such as “Christianity and the Arts”, “Bible Review”, and is featured as a column in “Touching His Heart”. Her “White Throne Judgment” was chosen one of the “Top Ten” in the international call for art, “Jesus 2000”. She also has several other bodies of work including “The Land of Contrast” depicting the area of En Gedi near the Dead Sea in Israel.

Book of Revelation Art Gallery contains all 49 constructed paintings present in Devi's eBook "SEVEN SEVENS:  The Visual Blessing of the Book of Revelation" , which is a seven-volume art eBook that interprets the Book of Revelation in light of the entire Bible. Each volume represents one of the seven key components of the Book of Revelation, which include the Seven Churches, Seals, Trumpets, Interludes, Bowls, Women, and Thrones.

“Devi Anne Moore is more than an accomplished artist. She has diligently studied end-time prophecy and, in particular, the Book of Revelation. Now she has been commissioned by the Lord to express His message of mercy to a dying humanity. Devi’s artwork pulsates with God’s spirit.”

The WORD Made Visual
The Purpose of "TAV" (Timely Art Visions) acronym

During a time of inspiration Devi realized that the last letter " tav" in the Hebrew alphabet represented the acrostic Timely Art Visions; thus, the name of her biblical art works of Revelation.

"Tav" means to mark or to set boundaries around. In Ezekiel 9 the one who held the pen put a mark or "tav" on the foreheads of those who would be able to escape God's wrath, setting them apart from those who were to be counted for judgment. In Revelation there are also those who receive a mark from God to escape impending final Judgment. Many today of the Jewish faith believe that the Mark of Ezekiel is the Hebrew word "emet" which means Truth. This word begins with the letter " alef" the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet and ends with " tav" the last--signifying to those who believe that all who are and who will be marked by this " tav" are the ones who keep by simple faith the Torah from " alef to tav"--from beginning to end. Thus those with the mark, "emet" will be spared from judgment too.

Devi's purpose is to provide a provocative visual platform by her apocalyptic art to enable the viewer to enter her spiritual art and into the Book of Revelation 's eschatological scenes within the current world happenings in the new millennium. Rather than trying to impose a didactic single interpretation, she hopes instead that these multifaceted paintings of her prophetic art will provoke and arouse the viewer to a new 'Revelation' in their understanding of the text as it pertains personally to the viewer in the time and world which they live.
For the believer in Jesus Christ, this 3D work will broaden the viewer's spiritual understanding of the Book of Revelation and how it relates to the entire Bible and the apocalypse. For others, this art invokes a warning for this contemporary age.

Seven Churches

The Seven Churches has seven of her vivid visual metaphors with her elaborate explanations derived from the scriptures of the Book of Revelation and provides insight as to what and why the artist included these contemporary ideas in her interpretation that all come from her diligent study of the entire Bible. This original body of work of the seven churches patterns itself after medieval altar pieces and can be set up to be viewed open or closed upon hourly (or whatever) intervals. This format was inspired from the biblical reference from the Book of Revelation as well as from the architectural-like structure it gave to the contemporary idea of “church” from the Middle Ages to the present day. The format allows open and shut views of the many symbolic ideas and hidden meanings about the cities and culture that are relevant to each church.

This body of seven artworks patterns itself after medieval altarpieces and can be set up to be viewed open or closed at intervals. The box-shaped format is appropriate because of the Biblical reference to the Seven Churches of the Book of Revelation as well as the architectural-like structure. The message, symbols, and content change according to the text but are made relevant to today’s events and trends. The inside/outside format is also a provocative way to juxtapose many ideas at one time.
The vision to the churches may be interpreted in three ways. Its significance was directed to 1). The individual historical church wherein the body can identify with the dilemma of a particular church as it is happening to them personally and corporately, 2). The distinct phases of the church throughout church history as they are recorded chronologically, or 3). the individual who needs to reflect the prophetic view as from the day of Pentecost until the end of the Church Age.
Only two of the churches are without criticism. For the other five, the cause of the problem becomes the means by which the sin is atoned.

Seven Seals

These first seven judgments are the breaking of the Seals as the world enters a new era, revealing the preliminary labor pains of "The Day of the Lord." The Star of David was the appropriate reference for the overall shape of this set since the time of the Gentiles was fulfilled. The first four paintings are the familiar "Four Horsemen." Rather than focusing on the horses, I focused on the props that the men were carrying as they were beckoned to go over all the earth with their judgments.

Seven Trumpets

The seven trumpets warns about a different aspect of the earth's judgment and destruction during the process of occurrence. These are the second seven judgments that act as warnings or alarms to hearken mankind to turn from his own way and return to the beckoning of GOD before it is too late.

Seven Bowls

The Greek word for bowl can also be translated to mean vial. So I took the liberty of using these two shapes to imply the same concept in "The Seven Bowls" E-Book. These are the last seven judgments before the Great Armageddon of the last battle, and at this point, those who have hardened their hearts shake their fists at GOD and refuse to repent. What is portrayed here is the pouring out of wrath from these bowls or vials as if the wrath itself is frozen in time. The freezing of time was the only way I could think to include an element of hope. The color in general, is also more heightened as if to warn or wake up awareness as to the meaning of these events.
