This exciting image is the final image in the series of the 10 plagues or 10 steps to lasting change. Representing the slaying of the first born, this powerful painting is rich with texture and vibrant reds against a dark background. This final plague pushed the pharoah of egypt beyond his limits and he released his slaves. The emotional pain required to face change and move in a new direction is intense. Ultimately, even this pain was not enough for pharoah to release his slaves. His army had to be completely destroyed during their pursuit. just as we must have a way to purge our past, even the parts we love, for a new future.
