Simple Message

Better than Paradise

Collage, 16" x 48"

This piece documents our family’s ongoing 
search to adopt a second child.   

In the biblical account of the Creation, Adam
and Eve eat the forbidden fruit and are driven
out of the garden of Eden.  This piece contrasts that
curse, and the loss of a paradisiacal garden,
with the joy that family brings.  Eve herself
thanked God for the children she bore,
and mourned the son she lost.

Each adoption journey has its challenges 
and heartache.  But family is our greatest 
blessing— and worth all the thorns and tears 
of this life.   

 

Freedom

One of my first collages, from about 2004. 
This piece was made to represent the concept of freedom.
It was for a picture book I was working on.
