Artist’s Notes
The mother waits in expectation for the life in her to be born. She looks upward, her neck and face tilted back, her hand supporting her stomach, her knees slightly bent. She has a posture of expectancy, a posture of strength yet humility. There is no arrogance in the way she holds herself, but a gentle “yes.” A “yes” to the life growing in her; that she carries inside. There is pain in pregnancy for sure, but this print hopes to capture the mystery and joy of being the vessel in which new life is begun, developed and birthed.

Sam,
What a GREAT piece. Being 6 months pregnant myself, i can see myself in this woman. Although pregnancy has it's "downs", it is absolutely an amazing and mysterious experience to be used to develop and bare one of God's precious children...a truly humbling experience. Well done! -Marlina
