Annunciation

I found this etching I made in 2015 of “The Annunciation,” and wanted to share it. The Holy Spirit is a rock pigeon, the Virgin Mary is reading. I saw a 15th century icon at the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena this weekend on the same theme, also sans Angel Gabriel.

It also made me think about Annunciation House in El Paso, which has been helping migrants there for 40 years. They have been in the news this week as their resources are stretched thin and the numbers of folks needing their help are increasing. You can learn more about them here and here
