Before exile. Before striving. Before the thorns.
Inspired by the Garden of Eden, Before the Thorns reflects the beauty of creation before brokenness entered the world. Soft, blurred blooms drift across the canvas like a distant memory of paradise—gentle, luminous, and just beyond full focus.
The painting invites viewers to consider Eden not simply as a place from the past, but as humanity’s original experience of heaven on earth. A world where God dwelled with His people, where beauty and communion existed without separation. The softened forms evoke the feeling of remembering something familiar yet far away, echoing the longing for restoration woven throughout scripture.
Part of The Garden collection, this piece explores wonder, sacred beauty, and the promise that what was lost is ultimately being restored.
8”x10” original acrylic and pastel on canvas.
