Description

Mary’s motherhood was largely hidden with the child Jesus, there’s not much in the Bible about those early days before Jesus started His public ministry.

But her life would have been deeply steeped in prayer, contemplation of her son, and dedication to His needs, as every mother knows. But it’s in contemplation of Mary’s motherhood that I think has the power to transform the difficulties and banalities of motherhood, into their own prayers. Jesus was fully human, and with that He was fully a baby, with all those stages of development and life.

Mary deeply knows the hidden life of a mother.

This sketch was part of a series that highlighted some of my favorite paintings and sculptures hidden in churches in Rome. Some are massive statues in St. Peter’s Basilica while others adorn quiet corners high up in the ceiling.

Moments of prayer brought into a sketch, highlighting the contemplative nature of our Faith, listening to God’s voice in a whisper.

Your Impact

For every order, 10% of all proceeds will go to organizations who provide resources to at risk women before and after birth.

The first is The Pregnancy Care Center of Rockford. They area a local organization to me,  providing resources and care for free to women in crisis pregnancies, from ultrasounds to parenting classes to post abortion healing.

The second is the Sisters of Life, a newer religious community founded in 1991 in New York to promote the dignity of every human life. They have houses for women to come live with them during and after their pregnancy as they get back on their feet, as well as counseling for post abortion healing, and other missions.
