Portrait

The female savior adorning a crown of thorn adds a more sexual undertone to the traditional conception of the asexual mother that is much more associated as the companion to this sort of imagery. Your processing is also very interesting in adding to the intrigue makes for a compelling and thought-provoking image.

Ramon, whether I take this in the spirit in which I "think" you mean for it to be taken (similar to my nun images), or I just divorce it from any spirituality whatsoever, I have to say that I am totally taken away by the mere intensity, beauty, anguish, pose, expression, and rendition of this image. In my opinion, this is a piece truly suited for the gallery/museum. Very nice work, and kudos to your model too.

What are you saying here?

 

Thanks Starvy and Michael for your kind comments. I´m glad that you like my work.

Greetings

Is there a reason behind your responding to everyone's comments with the exception of Spider?

I´m not the model. Her expression is caused by something that only she knows. My contribution is just that she hang in a cross i looked up, as well as the image processing. I think it is more important, what the image can say to you. And I think that her expression is what really makes interesting the image.

Love the concept of a feminine christ and you've both done a very fine job of it... Marvelous!
