Pacem, Pacem

12” x 12”

Acrylic painting and collage on birch panel. This was made during my first painting class, taken during covid isolation (Art2life creative visionary program.) I learned so much! This was made at the outbreak of the war in Ukraine…a tangible prayer.

“…for who is there who does not feel the craving to be rid of the threat of war, and to see peace preserved and made daily more secure? …Nothing is lost by peace; everything may be lost by war." —PACEM IN TERRIS ENCYCLICAL OF POPE JOHN XXIII 1963
