PRINTS

The woodcut of the sheep and lamb are intentionally or perhaps even subconsciously loaded with the symbol of peace and endurance. According to the Christian faith, the lamb represents Christ as both suffering and triumphant; it is typically a sacrificial animal, and may also symbolize gentleness, innocence, and purity. The artist brings our attention to these animals with a loving and gentle gaze of the animal painted in earth shades and rendered in black and white. The overall effect is one of a gentle disposition.
