I used my Christmas present money to get some frames for these lovely paintings we picked up in Ethiopia (we lived there for a semester while Evan completed his graduate research). I love them so much and would find myself cringing whenever I would open my studio cabinet and witness them collecting dust on a dark shelf. They are so beautiful and a little bit fragile (they are painted on some kind of animal skin and when bent, it cracks the paint. Eek!), so I am glad they have a proper place to live now.
This one is my favorite. A rather contemplative Daniel in the Lions Den.
And Jesus washing the Apostles feet.
details of note:
the afros on the Apostles and the large Ethiopian eyes on everyone, including the lions :)
