Alleluia


Christ is Risen. He is risen indeed.

This enormous icon/banner was viewed by many people over the weekend. Yes, I cringed when it went up, it is my "artist" thing to feel poorly about images that I have made.
That is not the important thing, Christ risen in reality is most important.
I have some stories to tell about the last week of painting. I will post more of them.
The Altar Cloth shown here is the part I most enjoy at this time. I painted it almost at the last minute. (another long story, involving a trip to the emergency room, mid-painting, with a family member, and everyone is fine now thank you). It is the Tree of Life with nine fruits of the Spirit. Gold, white, green and red on appliqued fabric.
