Acrylic Gouache on Paper
This striking window is composed of five lights, with Christ in glory above Biblical figures. The top row of figures represent: Noah as a simple carpenter; and Abraham; followed by King David, with his crown and harp. The lower lights are filled with: Mary with infant Jesus in the central light; to her right the Serpent and Eve; to her left the Brazen Serpent and Moses. The figures are all noticeably medieval figures, with a good deal of blue around them, particularly in Mary's case. The upper lights of this window contain angels bearing the instruments of the Passion.
This painting has been embellished with neon paints which transform under a blacklight.
