Name of the Father, drawingby `nimra

Traditional Art / Drawings / Surreal

Completed
In 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”.

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
