The Immaculata


The Immaculata, T. Nelson 2011
acrylic on gesso

I told Kat I would post an example of a retablo on gesso/wood with transparent washes.  I painted it for an ornate Peruvian frame.

  4. Aw shucks! Thanks y'all. I think the frame makes it look better than it is - but I appreciate your kindness.

  9. Hey Doughboy--great idea..Terry can design religious tattoos!!

    I'm deserately seeking a very feminine rendition of the Sacred heart/Immaculat Heart that doesn't look like some biker scrawl or Hispanic shrine..

    I have my Chi ro design that I have yet to be applied..maybe next time I'm in Vegas :)

  12. I love the colors and the frame is fantastic. I was playing around with crayons today, at your suggestion.

    It looked horrible. I will post it tomorrow... as a lesson for me to stay out of my kid's school supplies.
