In the biblical story of the birth of Jesus, wise men or priests from the East bring gifts to the newborn. I have interpreted the scene in a chinoiserie style, in the tradition of "inculturation," where religious art isn't created as a literal representation of the scene, but is adapted to reflect global traditions and culture, so that everyone might see themselves reflected in the story.
Chinoiserie is also a blending of my own two heritages, so it's very personal to me.
My watercolor painting is reproduced on a durable, clear acrylic ornament that measures 4 inches.
