Soft gradient fills serve as an element of balance and contrast to the photography in the book. Sharp, neutral photography is balanced by the softness and vibrancy of this visual element. Even though they are still, they almost vibrate with energy—this helps invigorate the familiar stories of the New Testament with new life.
Vibrant colors reflect the movement and action in these stories, reminding the reader that these women and men are more than just Bible characters; they lived full, complicated lives just like we do today.
