I like all paintings and sculptures of the Crucifixtion… The earliest paintings of the Crucifixtion dates from the 5th century… I was visiting a 90 year old aunt a couple of weeks ago, while certainly not religious she has several Crucifixes hanging around, I think she appreciates them for the same reason I do. One in particular, in her hallway, was so expressive, so emotional, I liked it and decided that I needed to create my own version of the Crucifixtion….I used two photographs to create this picture…The picture of the cross I photographed in a Yorkshire churchyard and the picture of the rocks was photographed on top of a hill in Scotland…After merging the two photos I then converted the picture to mono…Please enjoy.
