BEHIND MAGNIFICAT PRINTS

My name is Maria, and I'm the creator and artist behind Magnificat Prints.

Luke Chapter 1 is one of my favorite gospel chapters to meditate on. After Mary of Nazareth gives her fiat, all that is said is: “And the angel left her.” There are a lot of ‘historical’ gaps in the lives of Mary, Jesus, and Joseph, but their hidden life is rich for reflection.

I wanted to create art that gives natural and realistic expressions to the Holy Family. My favorite paintings in the gallery are the portraits of Jesus with a kind smile, Mary with a humorous look, Joseph with a wide grin. Jesus, along with his mother and foster father, lived the human life that every human lives. They laughed, they cried, they suffered discomfort, and they lived for God.

I hope you find a painting that resonates with you and will help you meditate on the life of Christ and the love of the Father.
I am off social media, so if you have any questions, please reach out to me by my email: magnificatprints@gmail.com

I'll be praying for your intentions. Thank you for visiting!
