A Sponge Print Christmas Miracle

A couple of years ago, as I was preparing for Christmas, I was making backgrounds using an ordinary rectagular kitchen scrourer sponge dipped into random pools of acrylic paint.  The idea was to create multicoloured rectangular backgrounds onto which I could stamp and emboss images.  As I lifted the sponge, this image of Mary cradling her baby was revealed.  There was no intention, to create this and I treasure it as an image of what Christmas is about.
