26. Good Friday

 
Acrylic and emulsion on lining paper, 8ft x 20ft.
 
We painted the figures separately and stapled them so we could remove them, leaving the crosses empty for Easter Sunday.
 
I'm pleased with how my two figures came out.  (I drew them in the large church hall but painted them mostly on my kitchen floor.)  It was extremely painful to paint the crown of thorns - I should have expected that!
 
 
I was almost badly caught out as I cut the figure below about two inches too short!!  His left hand should have been sitting just above the crossbar with his right hand in the middle of it.  It didn't look too, too bad though.  Phew!
