Both my Incarnation and my Vessel Series are represented in this painting titled from the poem, “The Weight of a Leaf” by Myra Scovel. We have bent to love as a twig bends to the weight of a leaf…. is a description of love which bends and is sacrificial.
The vessel image is a symbol of who we are as communal humans. See group of figures above. But it also suggests the Triune God who bent to earth to redeem  and love.
