A challenge met with ample success. Very evocative!

Great success Satu you have a modern looking man for Jesus. The White drawing on the painting contributes too also the darker palette.

Great work Satu. I see this as a modern church leaded window.

Thank you all Michael ,Christine, Marjorie, Dennis and Fiona for your kind comments! Marjorie, the size is 3 ft x 2 ft, very heavy board and difficult to handle.

A very modern interpretation of the crucifix Satu, love those blues and the white"drawing". All the paintings displayed together must be quite a sight.

Nine local artists were asked to paint a big painting for the Stations of the Cross for the Cookham Parish. This is my contribution for Good Friday. All the paintings are now erected around the village and will be later exhibited in the parish hall after Easter. The organisers wanted the pictures to be modern, Jesus wearing jeans and so on. Demanding challenge!
