Gathering Blessings



I started this project with a song in my head that asked if God would hold them together. I was thinking of how we are all broken and Jesus is the healer.


I liked the idea of using circles, that are supposed to be whole, but they are broken.

One morning I was reading in Romans from the Message version of the bible. The end of Romans 5:5 the paraphrase used is; "We can't round up enough containers to hold everything God generously pours into our lives through the Holy Spirit.


So now it's a combination, broken, but still blessed abundantly.


I used photography, cardboard tubing, paint, paper, rice, flower petals (dried and silk) and wax for this collage.
