Hi friends, I wanted to let you know that the buzz has continued since finishing the series of The Beatitudes painting last month. I was grateful for all your comments. Facebook, too, fairly overflowed with acclaim. Apparently the subject has never been treated in just this way before, or maybe ever in paint. That would be a big claim, but who knows? In any case, I’ve produced a number of media to make it available including a book, a poster and giclee prints.
The book
This is another of my 8″ by 8″ square editions, 50 pages with brief commentary, revealing the paintings themselves, as well as the process of their making. Already I’m getting orders, as is Amazon, where it’s also available. Click here for sample pages and purchasing info.

Here’s the book’s intro by friend and author Ann Voskamp.
Hyatt Moore’s art embodies grace and the passion of Christ and is the only art that hangs in our home. His painting, View from Above, an abstract depiction of our Savior on the cross, is one of my most meaningful life markers and hangs over our kitchen table. Every meal in our home is shared under that profoundly moving masterpiece.
Hyatt’s rendering of Jesus’ scarred hand taking the hand of doubting Thomas and pressing it into his wounds hangs in our bedroom and is the first thing I see every morning. The wounds of the day, of our souls, are healed only by His wounds.
And when I first laid eyes on Hyatt’s visual interpretations of the Beatitudes my heart split and leaked. Stilled and undone. Holy ground. How does looking into pigment on canvas feel like looking into the astonishing heart of Creator God?
That’s the unparalleled power of Hyatt’s paintings. They are fresh revelations of the unchanging Holy God on High that speak to the deepest caverns of the soul.
The poster
A new poster reveals the whole set of nine paintings, placed adjacent to each other, just as they were painted, as well as the use of the complete color spectrum. The surrounding white space lends a touch of elegance. And, of course, the truths are enigmatic and powerful. It’s 30″ by 11″ and suitable for framing, or hanging as is. Check it out here.

Giclee prints
There has already been some requests for giclee prints on canvas, as well as paper. The above array shown spread out on the floor are on canvas at the 20″ by 15″ size. That’s half the size of the original paintings (prints are available at full size too). For the offer and pricing information go to my Online Store/Beatitudes.

The facial expressions in this series are so true and spot-on, Hyatt. They seem alive, accurate to each verse’s implications, and speak much deeper than words. They compliment the Scriptures beautifully. This is an amazing collection. I’m heading right to Amazon for the book!
