Six days before the cross, Mary knelt down, broke open a jar of costly perfume, and poured it over Jesus's feet. This bible sketch captures that close, quiet moment — her hands, His feet, the jar tipped and spilling, rendered in dense, textured ink that draws the eye in rather than pulling back.
"Mary took a pound of expensive ointment made from pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair." (John 12:3)
Drawn in fine cross-hatched black ink with no color wash, this piece leans into intimacy and cost — a gift too extravagant to make sense by any practical measure, given anyway. It's a quiet reminder that devotion doesn't always look reasonable, and that some of the most meaningful acts of faith happen kneeling, not standing.
