The Anointing

The Anointing is a painting about sacred appointment — about what it means to be chosen, covered, and called. The textures in this piece are thick and layered, like oil pressed from olive and poured with intention. I painted it outdoors in the quiet of summer, with my daughter Autumn — only a few months old — sleeping beside me. In those early days of motherhood, I was learning that being anointed doesn’t always look like glory — sometimes, it looks like being revealed through intense pressure.

Golden tones flood the canvas, flowing across deep greens, charred purples, and hidden reds. The movement is slow and weighty — not rushed, but deliberate. There’s power in the contrast: something holy forming beneath heat and heaviness. It doesn’t shimmer to impress; it glows with meaning.

Part of the Living Waters collection, The Anointing is a visual altar — a reminder that when God sets us apart, He often does it in the fire. And what He draws out is not just for beauty — it’s for purpose.
