Story Behind the Art
Story Behind the Art
16 X 20 Oil on Canvas
before the tomb,
there was a garden.
and before he rose,
he sank —
low to the earth,
marred by soil.
he did not avoid
the dark...
he entered it,
until it opened.
this is the pattern.
this is the way of becoming.
the garden— the soil, lets you be buried.
that you might rise higher
and be canopy crowned.
Original artwork of Oil on Panel 16 x 20. Painted 2025.
Shown in Emily's solo show "Two Way Reaching: The Holy Invitation of the Fertile Dark" at the Havenlight Gallery November 2025.
