Description
Iconography is a process of meditation and prayer with the presence of God. Icons are windows to the Divine, therefore, the artist must be open to the active presence of God. This painting inspired by the Lenten Season, a time during which we are given the opportunity to begin our lives differently, through soul searching and repentence. Jesus came in the flesh and dwelt among us, and suffered hunger and thirst, heat and cold, betrayal and loneliness, and finally also pain and agony and death upon the cross. One of my favorite works is the art of Diego Velazquez's Christ on the Cross, which was my inspiration for this portrait of Christ's suffering.
