In the Name of the Father
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
