3rd Joyful Mystery. The infant Jesus is born in a stable in Bethlehem.
4th Joyful Mystery. The Blessed Virgin presents the Child Jesus to Simeon

The Rosary consists of 20 Mysteries
divided into four distinct parts -
The Joyful, The Luminous, The Sorrowful, and
the Glorious Mysteries.
Each Mystery is an oil painting on Balm of Gilead Tree Trunk (1" thick, ~ 9 - 11" in diameter). Balm of Gilead was a rare perfume used in Biblical times medicinally for healing purposes. As an artist with a desire to share God's love with others, I was excited to learn this after I purchased this beautiful wood to create a painting using one of God's most beautiful and symbolic creations - the Tree.
I am painting each set of the Mysteries of the Rosary and will post each as they are completed.
I have always understood that we are all part of the Universe, God’s Creation, and our words and actions affect each other in extraordinary ways. I choose to contribute to the greater good, and take every opportunity to "pay it forward."
A minimum of 50% percent of all proceeds
will be donated to people in need.
