What is the Travail of the Flag?

The Travail of The Flag

Painted in 1987 by Shelli Jones Baker out of a vision from the Lord. Shelli worked 4 months on the painting often choosing to paint over eating and sleeping.  When she was done it was evident she had in fact been used in a mighty way by the Holy Spirit to convey a very important painting to the world.  The painting tells the story of God’s Covenant with American through his blood.  It portrays every major American  conflict as well as some battles not yet fought. The 12’x4’ mural is painted with acrylic paint on canvas. It is divided into 6 sections which measure 2’x4’ for easy transportation.  The work has been on display in several museums across the country and currently resides at the Sacred Arts Center in Eureka Springs Arkansas.
