"That I May Know" is an artwork that reflects a pivotal moment in Christian faith - the resurrection of Christ from the tomb, as witnessed by Mary Magdelene. Lee expresses her dedication to this piece, noting, "I think I painted this one 17 times," underscoring the effort and passion Lee poured into capturing the essence of the scene. The painting represents the profound joy, relief, and hope Mary must have felt upon seeing the risen Christ, emotions Lee aims to share with viewers in their homes, especially during the Easter season.
Lee's intention with this piece is to allow people to feel connected to Christ's resurrection, to "feel close to Christ" and to "imagine that moment and they're in that moment, with Christ." Lee's commitment to her process and the depth of emotion she seeks to evoke through her work make "That I May Know" a powerful addition to any space.
