waiting...

Jesus is laid in the tomb


This is the final image for my series Stations of the Cross. I started working on it several years ago when my church asked the artist's guild to create images for each of the fourteen stations. Mine was Station 11: Jesus is nailed to the cross. The scripture that accompanies this station specifically mentions that he was crucified between two thieves, and that was my focus for the artwork, an abstract that depicts the Christ only as a blur of red between two other colors.

It's taken me a long time to complete the series, and for now, at least, it is finished. You can view them all here. Scroll down and move back up to see it in sequence (if that's the way you like to do things.)
