Cynthia Mosser

It's that time of year again, where eggs will rule the supermarket shelves. Eggs are a big deal this time of year because of course, Easter, but what is behind their symbolism? In Christianity, eggs represent the Resurrection of Christ, in the way a new life emerges from an eggshell. Get this: in the Orthodox tradition, they are painted red to symbolize the blood that Jesus shed on the cross. This egg coloring has continued in modern secular nations. I have chosen the light blue color, akin to a robin's egg. My adoration of the egg shape is for two reasons: the asymmetrical aspect, the oval, and the fact that they represent potential or renewal. What's not to love? ❤️ Cynthia If you'd like to own this original 7 x 5 inch gouache painting titled "Spring Egg", here's a payment link: http://tiny.cc/spring_egg Spring Egg, 2022 Gouache on Museum Board 7 x 5 inches #cynthiamosser #art #painting #gouachepainting #easteregg #egg #paisleys #eggsymbolism #
