Heroes Artist: Jean-Marie Hamel “Heavenly Hero” Oil on Linen Panel 14”x11” During this coronavirus pandemic, I am finding myself especially grateful for the courageous men and women on the front lines that stand as “beacons of light” as they nurse sick and dying patients regardless of race, creed, color, situation or circumstance. Surely they are “angels on earth” and by painting this COVID-19 ICU nurse, I am offering my heartfelt thanks, gratitude and respect. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5e34a8af64f9aa0a90197583/t/5f3034e9be6db12b5fedda60/1601414724055/Mother-Daughter+Legacy.jpeg Nursing Heroes Artist: Jean-Marie Hamel “Mother-Daughter Legacy” Oil on Linen Panel 14”x11” Love knows no boundaries between this mother-daughter health care team and the patients they serve. Together, these fearless nurses demonstrate skill, compassion and grace in a time of darkness, and help to heal the body and soul of countless people receiving medical care during the COVID-19 crisis. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5e34a8af64f9aa0a90197583/t/5f3035a009e14e53cba49a10/1601414724058/Sandi-in-her-garden.jpg Nursing Heroes Artist: Jean-Marie Hamel “Brave Warrior” Oil on Linen Panel 14”x11” Oh, thank God for this brave warrior’s selfless service as she gives life-saving treatment to COVID-19 patients. Every day she puts herself and her family at risk. Relentlessly, she shows up with unblinking compassion and humanity. Let us take time to thank her and all the front-line health care workers who battle the coronavirus each day. https://jeanmariehamel.com/spiritual-works daily 0.75 2021-02-17 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5e34a8af64f9aa0a90197583/t/5f73a69f892d2e52b58db9a2/1601416257421/Light+of+the+World+jpg.jpeg Spiritual Works Artist: Jean-Marie Hamel “Light of the World” Oil on Linen Panel 30”x20” When I was a child, I saw a picture of Christ holding a light and I was transfixed. It resonated with me at a very primordial level. As an adult, I am still drawn to the spiritual awareness it awakens in me so I decided to create my version of it. During the painting process, I was blessed with a profound energy filling and surrounding me. It brought forth an innate wisdom and knowing of my infinite and spiritual nature. I hope by hanging it on the wall and viewing it regularly, I will experience this deep connection often. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5e34a8af64f9aa0a90197583/t/5f73a755bffe5632cc501d95/1613603883498/Annunciation.jpeg Spiritual Works Artist: Jean-Marie Hamel “The Annunciation” Oil on Linen Panel 30”x24” “The Annunciation” painting is a commissioned work of art. This summer, I accepted a commission to paint the annunciation story which is the Christian celebration of the announcement by the Archangel Gabriel to the Blessed Virgin Mary that she would conceive from the Holy Spirit and become the mother of Jesus. My patron asked that I paint purple roses instead of the traditional white lily. Frequently, roses mean loving and the purple rose is often referred to as the “mystical rose” and holds a special meaning to the buyer of this painting. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5e34a8af64f9aa0a90197583/t/5f73a7e538c29a5b67b4a3a1/1601482032994/Joan+of+Arc-The+Calling.jpeg Spiritual Works Artist: Jean-Marie Hamel “Joan of Arc - The Calling” Oil on Linen Board 16”x12” “Joan of Arc - The Calling” is my interpretation of Joan of Arc when she begins hearing the voice of God and is unwavering in her following. I’ve tried to capture her purity in her morning garden as she prays with devotion and lovingly receives her inner calling. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5e34a8af64f9aa0a90197583/t/5f73a80694c7b1106b491bad/1601482055399/Joan+of+Arc-The+Spiritual+Warrior.jpeg Spiritual Works Artist: Jean-Marie Hamel “Joan of Arc - The Spiritual Warrior” Oil on Linen Board 16”x12” “Joan of Arc - The Spiritual Warrior” is painted in her full armor, chopped off hair, and symbolic saintly ring of light around her head. It is recorded that she said, “I was born to do this.” At any age, her journey is amazing but to begin hearing and welcoming God’s voice at 13 and lead the French army to victory in the 100 Year War at 16 is no small feat. And at 19, she was burned at the stake because she held to the Truth. Her willingness to follow God’s will is awe-inspiring and her fierce spirit is magnificent. To me, Joan represents humanity at its greatest.
