Earthen Vessels (2003) 20x16 oil on canvas 

     "But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, to show that the transcendent power belongs to God and not to us."

      - 2 Corinthians 4:7

      Sometimes I think too highly of myself. I love this image because it's such a great reminder that I am an "earthen vessel." I'm fragile, rather plain, imperfect and often cracked or chipped. But what a treasure I have inside!
