Description
CompletedIn the Name of the Father Sold 2007
Pencil on matboard 21” x 40”
Under the auspices of the Christian church there have been both horrible atrocities and amazing selfless acts of giving, all in “The Name of the Father”. The rouge priest stands for this duality; representing both the victim and culprit. Is he freeing the Christ from his cross or tearing him from his symbol of martyrdom? Helper, healer, consoler, rapist, madman, thief…
Thank you all for following this wip and for all the great comments and questions asked, I will try to get back to you as best as I can.
Thank you for looking

Thank you Yezen! it took some time, the model is my father and he had to come back quite a few times to my studio. I would say 350+ hours, its hard to judge a lot of the process involves thinking, sketching and planning.

...sounds to me like you are trying to make a point.........
PLEASE don't view either the christian faith (nor Jesus Christ) in light of the Christendom that is/has been - but I guess you would have to see that for yourself
the saints have always been, and will always be, apart from and despised by 'the church'
the picture is of course marvellous, albeit terribly depressing, in more ways than one
