Holy

36x36" mixed media collage oil painting on wrapped canvas
 
Part of the HALE collection. 
Whole, Healed and Holy all come from the root word HALE. So this series explores the connectedness as well as the uniqueness of these three aspects of being truly hale.
 
HOLY is a state we can't acheive on our own. It is a distinction of separateness, other-ness. Holiness comes at a cost and is given as a gift. We receive holiness. We put on holiness. We wear holiness. Holiness is available through relationship with the Holy One.
