Advent

Roger writes of Advent: "This painting, for me, came out of a sense of waiting--of expectation. Mary is soon to give birth to Jesus. She is searching, watching, waiting. The star in the sky is also watching - waiting. . . . The world is also in a place of waiting--a place of fear and war. We await the Christ-child. We are hungry for peace and understanding."
