In Burning Bush 5, Anne Reid Artist brings forward a vivid abstraction of one of the Bible’s most awe-inspiring theophanies. Against a glowing backdrop of layered purple hues—ranging from plum to lavender—a solitary tree stands, engulfed in upward-burning flames yet entirely intact. The flames, rendered in tones of gold, orange, and scarlet, flicker like vertical candles, echoing the form of a menorah while simultaneously referencing Exodus 3:2—when Moses encounters God in a bush that burns but is not consumed.

The tree’s twisted limbs carry movement and tension. Some limbs are stark and bare, while others are gently kissed by heat and light. This contrast becomes a central visual metaphor: encountering God may not alter form, but it always changes essence. The use of vibrant color blocking and textured brushwork reflects Reid’s signature colorist style, seen throughout The Israel Collection, including works like The Apple 2, print and Cleft 2, print.

Prophetic viewers may sense intercession and divine calling in this piece. Its minimal composition allows the central motif to radiate—ideal for contemplative corners, prayer rooms, or transitional home décor. Like many of Reid’s works, the painting is an invitation rather than a declaration—an atmosphere rather than an answer.
