Description
I started with an abstract base, and saw a portrait of a woman come through the chaos. I pushed through the ugly stage. Adding the hands to this piece gave the piece the title of “Release”. As I finished in drip oils, I realized I’d painted Mary the mother of Jesus. As a rule, I avoid overtly religious paintings as to allow the viewer of my work to connect to spirituality without directly spelling it out. But as I had the realization of the identity of this woman, I knew no one would understand what RELEASE would look like more than Mary. Someone who was giving up their child to a brutal death for the life of others.
On a smaller level I can relate as we are on the cusp of releasing our daughters into adulthood. Where they will have the opportunity to love and care for those around them in their chosen careers. As painful as an empty nest feels, I dream they will live fully into whom God made them to be.
