Once, for All (front)

I made some deliberate choices in this piece, distilling the crucifixion down to its strongest visual elements to concentrate the emotion, modernizing the details to relate to our time, and using physical form to convey externally the internal strength of the sacrifice. Finally, I chose to give the darkness and hate perpetrating the crime the personification of a scavenging crow.

 

At this point in the crucifixion, the enemy believed he had won, so the crow is in a celebratory rage. The irony is understood though, as we happen to know what a total victory this moment was for Christ- and us ALL.
