The inspiration for this piece comes from...
Proverbs 16:3
Commit your works to the LORD, and your thoughts will be established.
The cross is made of wood and measures 19'' X 10'' x 1-1/2''. I took images from an art text book and covered the cross to add an old world feel to it. The posable mannequin is positioned liked the crucified Christ and I used a paint brush to form the face and head...
To me... this cross serves as a reminder to keep the main thing... the main thing... to honor God and his word through my art.
Two similar pieces I have done are "Redeeming the Arts" and "Never Apologize for Your Art" ... both are crosses and both address the issue of Faith and Art.
Thanks Terry!
Great piece Terry! ..and love the inspiration as well from Proverbs!
