Publisher's Synopsis
The only NIV Bible with a printed hand-painted cover design and beautiful art hidden in the page edges
Exquisite from the inside out, the NIV Artisan Collection Bible stuns with its printed cover design showcasing hand-painted flair. When the Bible is opened, beautiful art appears on the page edges as you read through Scripture. When you close the Bible, the image vanishes into shimmery foil gilding. In addition to the attractive typesetting, each page of this Bible has lightly ruled, wide margins, inviting you to journal, reflect, take notes, and create art. As you start reading, let your eyes relax as you take in more of God's Word with the exclusive Zondervan NIV Comfort Print(R) typeface, carefully designed with custom fonts to be enjoyable and easy to read.
Cover art for these beautiful journaling Bibles was created by Edna Marie Esparra, the founder of the Bible painting ministry Everlasting Words Designs. A former industrial engineer, she quickly changed paths and discovered her true passion when a friend asked her to custom paint a Bible cover. Creating personal and inspirational artwork that glorified God turned into a new journey for her life and career. An avid lover of flowers, landscape views, writing, and music, you can find Edna sitting in her home studio painting fields of wild flowers and hand lettering while she listens to her newest playlist. She resides in Puerto Rico with her husband and two adorable dogs.
