5x7 cyanotype, watercolor and pencil on 140lb watercolor paper. Artist signature on front. Framed in a 11x14 composite frame, with an archival textured matte board. This piece was dyed in the sun, bathed in water, painted on, drawn on, and carefully sealed with wax. 

Sustain me is the first painting in the series and sets a foundation for the rest of the themes. Photographed are my hands holding a vessel and as water pours in, water flows out the holes in the bottom. The vessel represents me, the holes in the bottom are each thing I give energy and love to, for example my children and spouse. The water flowing in represents the steadfast love of God, “the well that never runs dry.” And to me, this is the dance of finding things that fill your cup, and also generously giving away what you have been given.
