Description: This is the final color piece
in the Golden Mean project. I see the two beautiful stories of Mary Magdalene
being told here. First is Jesus' Resurrection that can be seen by His wounds
and the burial cloth He is wearing. Mary went to the tomb to further
anoint His body. Her tearful dismay at finding the tomb empty was turned
to joy when He made known to her that He is Risen!
The other story that I love of Mary is told in the elements
highlighted in this picture. She went to Him and washed his feet, drying
them with her hair. She anointed His head with fine perfume. She
is forgiven much because she loves much. Mary is always reaching out to
her Lord, and He has always extended His hand in blessing to her. |
