The creation of this mandala, Sacred Space, was begun
by a search for God’s purpose for my life and talent.
Nature has been calling me for years and recently I have
been led to concentrate heavily upon it for my image inspirations.
This piece began with a simple walk in the fall with my
camera. It has taken several years to manifest into its
present form. The organic form speaks of the presence
of God everywhere we turn. The emergence of Mary with
the Christ child beckons the viewer ever closer to the
realm of nature as sacred space. It is a direct answer
to the prayer for spiritual sight and a hint of the immenseness
and power of “all things” growing “into
. . . Christ.”
