Fleur Indigo No. 4, Acrylic and Mixed Media painting by artist Heather Elliott, Detailed view

“Come to me, all you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.”

Matthew 11: 28

This series represents my search for meaning and peace during a difficult season. The watery backgrounds symbolize the River of Life of my faith. Living water sustains us, even when we are unable to do more than than just float along with the current, carried by the prayers of others. Stitch by stitch, and prayer by prayer, this series brought me peace.
