I am the Clay

Art, to me, serves as a visual embodiment of scripture, enriching our surroundings with its eloquent narrative. My creations abound in symbolism, intricately weaving the essence of scriptures into each piece. These artworks, distinctive in their expression, not only serve as poignant reminders of divine teachings but also spark meaningful conversations, inviting others to engage with the profound beauty of God's Word.

Jeremiah 18:3-4 describes a powerful analogy of God as a potter and humanity as clay. It reads, "So I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was working at his wheel. And the vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter’s hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to do." This passage symbolizes God's sovereignty and the transformative nature of His work in our lives. Just as a skilled potter shapes and reshapes clay to create something beautiful, God shapes and molds us, even in our imperfections, into vessels according to His divine plan. It illustrates God's ability to reshape our lives, offering hope and redemption, even when we may feel flawed or broken.

In this piece I depicted the woman as the vessel emerging newly made as God makes us. 

This piece was created with wood stain and ink on a beautiful birch panel. It is ready to hang and measures approximately 9"x12".
