This is one painting made up of two parts. They can exist separately or together. I love giving my work a bit of an icon style by adding gold paint to the halos and details in the clothing simply because it looks beautiful. While painting this, I thought that if we believe Jesus was God on earth, then at some point in His earthly life, He was utterly dependent on humans, and His fragile life was in their hands. That’s why I depicted Mary and Joseph as so big and strong. It gives great hope that God hasn’t completely lost faith in His creation.
