Saint Mary Magdalene teaches me that love, adoration and
faithfulness are greater than power. This icon, digitally
hand painted with a mouse, reveals my vision of the one
who loved Christ as I should. She wears black and grieves
the crucifixion; she holds one white lily as witness to
the Resurrection; her eyes are those of one who has witnessed
the greatest sorrow and the greatest joy; her halo contains
seven flowers of nard, from which oil was made to anoint
Christ, seven as a symbol of her gratitude for Christ
healing her of seven demons.
