Be It Unto Me is the premier image in what the Workshop believes will be a major and definitive collective work. Over the next two years, the artist will document the human events in Jesus’ life through 50 unique paintings that will be made available over time as prints, canvases and a book. Lemon Swindle sees Be It Unto Me as a celebration of Mary as much as Jesus. “She was about 14 years old, just a child when told she would give birth to the Savior. But all she said was, ‘Be it unto me’ (Luke 1:38). You have to honor that kind of faith.”
