Humble yard flowers of Madison, Connecticut were gathered and put into glass by the staff of a retreat center there. Several small arrangements graced the dining tables, so in between meals, I posed this one in a window frame of soft, cloudy day light. The name of the retreat center is “Mercy by the Sea”. I tried to show these flowers some of my own mercy by extending their lives in paint.
Heart of Darkness
And so begins the Sacred Triduum, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday.
