I love the fountain at Forsyth Park downtown in Savannah. I completed this painting using only a palette knife.

I am honored to be included in St. Paul's Lenten Art Exhibit of the Stations of the Cross. This is my interpretation of the thirteenth station, Jesus is Removed from the Cross. And this is the meditation to accompany the artwork.

Time stood still as Mary, the Mother of Jesus, held the lifeless body of her Son. He spoke the words “It is finished,” then He gave up His Spirit. In meditating on both the removal of the Body of Jesus from the Cross and visualizing the renowned images of the Pieta (immortalized in painting and in stone by various artists through the ages), the words of Simeon as recorded in the Gospel of Luke come to mind “And you yourself a sword shall pierce.” There can be no sword like the one that pierces the heart of a parent who loses a child. In this painting, my intention is not only to portray this grief in the face of the Mother, Mary, but also to display the profound hope that as sure as the sun sets on this darkest of days, a new day will dawn with the Son of God breaking the chains of death and grief, rising again to new life.

Inspiration for this painting comes from the design and bold colors of Vincent Van Gogh’s own Pieta which he painted while confined in the hospital at Saint-Rémy in 1889.

I haven't painted in entirely too long, so I had a great time painting this marsh landscape!
