The Ascension
Oil and Tempera Painting, The Mische Technique
2008
Not for sale
 This painting shows Christ returning to the Father, after accomplishing his task on Earth. Below, his mother and the disciples look up in longing. For the Joyful mysteries I took the theme of a tree; and for the Glorious the theme is stars. Christ is here shown with a crown of stars, symbolising his victory over death and his ascension beyond the starry spheres.
