Introduction: A Divine Invitation
Welcome to “Crowning Royalty,” a deeply personal and spiritual exhibition that celebrates the strength, dignity, and sacred identity of women. This original canvas collection by Alicia Bucknor invites you on a journey of discovering the divine purpose within.
More than just art, each painting in this series is a spiritual reflection—an offering of faith, identity, and unity. Using timeless black and white tones to depict the eternal and divine nature of our spirits, each piece speaks to the soul. The gold crowns that appear throughout the collection are symbols of God's love and the heavenly royalty bestowed upon us.
As you explore this series, allow yourself to reflect on the royalty within you. Let these works awaken your divine identity and remind you that you are chosen, loved, and called with purpose.
Artist Statement: A Journey Crowned in Faith
As a mother, wife, and artist, “Crowning Royalty” is my heart expressed on canvas. This collection is the result of a powerful internal transformation—a shift from seeking validation in the world to embracing my true identity in Christ.
Black symbolizes depth and mystery, while white represents purity and grace. These tones speak to the unchanging, eternal spirit within us all. The gold crowns reflect divine royalty and remind us that, no matter our past or present, we are crowned by God with honor and purpose.
This collection is my testimony and my prayer—that every woman who sees these works will be reminded of her divine calling and sacred worth. May each piece awaken the royal spirit within you, calling you into a deeper sense of purpose, peace, and power.
