I do so like this Russell. Showered in light, and the facial expression fits perfectly.

Superb work Russell , definitely met the challenge and then some.

Cleverly done - has no resonance for me, since I don't believe; but effective nonetheless. (That I don't believe is no reflection on those who do: I can still feel the power of images, even if I can share in the theology.)

Can't share, of course I mean. Ignore that - I still respond to the image, and the suffering.

Very impressive charcoal, Russel!

Such a powerful image of strength and vulnerability, an image that touches the soul Russell. Thank you for sharing this.

You've caught great expression in the face, it's beautifully drawn Russell.

Beautiful charcoal and the reflection,, one can sense the transition from mortality into the resurrection. It has an ethereal exposure in the light exposure as he transcends, beautiful!
