Jesus is Nailed to His Cross

Mixed media oilgraph on canvas with wood and blood
36"x36"

It is the moment just before...
In just a second the first nail will be driven in. This is the moment just after Jesus spoke the words "Father forgive them. They don't know what they are doing." Three stakes of wood descend to pierce the horizon just as three thorns pierce the sky.

We are asked to contemplate "What is forgivable? Who do we need to forgive? And who may need to forgive us?"
