‘The Prophetic Artist: Raising an Army of Artists’

Prophetic art is a visual form of prophecy. It is art that carries a message from the heart of God to strengthen, encourage and comfort. In ‘The Prophetic Artist: Raising an Army of Artists’, Wendy Manzo shares 42 prophetic paintings along with stories of their creation.

Art is an enduring witness. In The Prophetic Artist, Wendy Manzo marries Art and Theology. She shares 18 years of experience painting prophetically in ‘The Spontaneous Prophetic Artist in the Pentecostal Church’, a Thesis presented for the Degree of Master of Arts Christian Studies. Delivered through an autoethnographical research framework, this study contributes to Pentecostal aesthetics by articulating the emerging identity of the prophetic artist in Pentecostalism. By communicating the lived experience of the prophetic artist as an authentic in-context narrative, this study serves as an accessible way of deepening the reader’s understanding of spontaneous prophetic art experiences, bearing witness to the role of the Holy Spirit in arts ministries. “The arts belong to the Lord, and He is raising His army now to retake them.”

Prophetic artworks are visual love letters that speak straight to your heart carrying a message from the heart of God to strengthen, encourage and comfort. Wendy Manzo answers questions about ‘how, when, and whys’ of prophetic art and gives rare insight into how artists paint with God and how a Christian artist can move in the realm of visual prophecy.

After a decade of writing John Fairfax & Sons magazine group Sungravure, Wendy spent 30+ years creating beautiful bespoke jewellery and original paintings, returning to her journalistic origins to publish several books. ‘The Prophetic Artist’ is her seventh book and the fourth in a series of creative non-fiction art volumes.
