This Fish is Cooked

The Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary- fish detail

I'm just about done the shadowbox I've created for the LOOK Juried Show in Sarnia. The glue is drying, and I have to attach the frame. Here's a sneak peek. The Virgin Mary has just cooked a fish, and the angels are looking at it, forks and spoons in hand.

This would not be a miraculous occasion in the day and times of a good woman in, say, 14BC. It would be a miraculous occasion in my house, however, no matter what year it is. That is not to say that I am not a good woman- I am what I like to call Domestically Challenged.

I like the shiny silver fish. And, of course, the fish is also a symbol of Christ/Jesus/Christianity. It all works. I'll post the whole shot when it is ready.

I think I'll be driving my entry to Sarnia later this week, as the deadline is February 5th and I don't trust the mail. But my entry is almost done.

It's a miracle!
